A stellar Black water jar by Yamaguchi Shozaemon XIII enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Kamakura Nioi Mizusashi. Scraped cut and beat out of form with looping ribbons of clay for handles creating a bold, lively experience. Here is a Mizusashi which certainly does not let down. It is 21 cm (just over 8 inches) diameter at the base, 16.5 cm (6-1/2 inches) tall and in excellent condition.
Yamaguchi Shozaemon was born in 1913 in Seto city, the heartland of one of the oldest pottery traditions in Japan, the 13th generation potter in his family line. Concentrating on the preservation of the traditional techniques of the Seto kiln as well as the development of modern ceramic art, works by him are preserved in the collection of the Imperial Household and Nagoya Castle.
