An intriguing lidded bowl patterned with soft blue red and white in the style of traditional hand made temari balls (multicolored silk thread balls) by modern ceramic artist Sato Kazuhiko (b. 1947). The piece is signed on the base and dated 1992, and comes enclosed in the original signed wooden box. Inside the dish is pebble textured stone gray, with a silver tablet fired into the top. A perfect jigsaw cut separates base and cover. Certainly a representative work by the artist, it measures 6-1/2 inches (16.5 cm) round. Kazuhiko is a widely displayed artist and author of any number of books on the ceramic arts.
