A Stunning combination of works by mother and son Koyama Kiyoko (1936-present) and Koyama Kenichi (1961-1992), both in the original signed wooden boxes. The Tokkuri, by Kiyoko, is of bulbous form decorated with slips of green glaze used sparingly around the neck. The terracotta body is fired to a deep amber on one side, the bright orange clay indicative of Shigaraki showing through on the other. It is 4-1/2 inches (11cm) tall, 3-1/2 inches (9cm) diameter and is signed by the artist on the base. The Iga style Tsubo is spectacular, with the slightly lopped body burnt to a glassy green on parts, showing the typical blue Iga glaze through running rivulets down one side and charred dark gray on the other. It appears to have been pulled from a thousand years on the bottom of the sea. It measures 6-1/2 inches (16.5 cm) tall, 5-1/2 inches (14cm) diameter. Kiyoko Koyama is one of the pillars of Shigaraki and is one of the most influential female artists in her field. Kenichi
