{"product_id":"p1605","title":"Yamate-yaki deep tea bowl","description":"This is a Yamate-yaki deep tea bowl, a collaborative work between the master Bizen craftsman Kōsai Suzuki—beloved by all for his carefree smile and reliable skill—and Jū Moriwake, known as the restorer of Chugoku Bank. On this Yamate-yaki tea bowl, a specialty of Suzuki, who was well-versed in styles beyond Bizen, the highly cultured Moriwake has applied skillful brushwork. The modest painting of white plum blossoms on the milky-white base creates an incredibly delicate atmosphere. The interior of the bowl has kiln-transmuted into a subtle madder red, an exquisite hue that is evocative of spring.\n\nWith signature and box by Jū Moriwake (double-crossbar lid)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 14.2cm x Diameter 14.2cm x Height 8.5cm\n\nKōsai Suzuki (1908–1972, born in Gunma Prefecture) arrived in Imbe in 1933 and worked on ceramic sculptures. He produced many superior pieces, such as figurines of lions, tigers, and Kannon statues, and his zodiac figurines remain famous to this day. His handmade houhin teapots feature protruding spouts and reflect his commitment to functional beauty. He also created ceramic plaques for the poetry monuments of Kyūkin Sazanami. A man who loved sake and left behind elegant masterpieces, he was a designated holder of artistic preservation qualifications. He passed away at the age of 65.","brand":"鈴木黄哉","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618366607457,"sku":"1605","price":60000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/1605.jpg?v=1790235446","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p1605","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
