{"product_id":"p1374","title":"Hidasuki Sake Cup","description":"This is a Hidasuki sake cup by Yoshinobu Morimoto, an artist with a superb aesthetic sense who continues to evolve in his work with clay, firing, and craftsmanship. This piece reflects Mr. Morimoto’s current focus on retaining the raw character of the clay, offering the pleasure of seeing it change and mature with use. While utilizing traditional methods—Kannon clay fired only once—the finished result follows firmly in the footsteps of ancient Bizen ware. The moist, azuki-bean colored clay body is draped in a rich, vermillion-hued Hidasuki, with stone inclusions (ishihaze) providing a perfect accent. True to the artist's concept, this is a piece you will want to use extensively and help \"grow.\"\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san) included\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 6.3cm × Diameter 5.8cm × Height 5.4cm\n\nYoshinobu Morimoto was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1976.
