{"product_id":"p1575","title":"Bizen ware yohen vase","description":"This Bizen kiln-change vase is by the popular young artist Yoshiteru Koriki, a former apprentice to the master Sozan Kaneshige. The piece is captivating for its powerful yet gentle form, which retains the rich, supple texture of the clay. The deep gray ash glaze, which almost seems as though it would deform if pinched, will beautifully accentuate the colors of any flowers placed within. The magnificent scarlet hue is a crystallization of the diligent effort Koriki puts into both clay preparation and his ceaseless research into kiln firing.\n\nOriginal signed box (shiho-san style)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 11.5cm × 11.3cm × Height 24.1cm\n\nYoshiteru Koriki was born in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture. Influenced by his father, who loved pottery, he set his heart on a career in ceramics. After graduating from high school in 1989, he began an apprenticeship under the master Sozan Kaneshige and his son Yuho, where he honed his technical skills. Following seven years of training, he established his own climbing kiln in Shizutani, Bizen City in 1996, and successfully held his first firing the following year. He held his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in 2000 and has held annual solo exhibitions ever since. In 1999, he was selected for the \"Exhibition of Confectionery Vessels I Want to Use,\" and in 2002, he was selected for the \"Exhibition of Tea Ceremony Forms\" for the first time.","brand":"高力芳照","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618361823329,"sku":"1575","price":70000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/1575.jpg?v=1790235401","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p1575","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
