{"product_id":"p1757","title":"Ibe Shuten","description":"This Bizen sake cup (shuzomi) is the work of Masashiro Aiga, an artist who creates works that are uncompromising and imbued with integrity. By applying a clay slip using a carefully selected blend of various soils, he has successfully produced a deep, profound shiso-red hue that radiates a faint glow. The vivid ochre of the generously applied yellow sesame glaze (kigoma) complements the shiso-red of the body, with each color enhancing the other. A thick, viscous layer of kigoma that looks as though it could be pinched with one's fingers is placed in the interior of the cup; when viewed while filled with sake, it combines with the ripples to create an even greater sense of three-dimensionality.\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san) included.\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter: 7.8cm × 7.2cm × Height: 5.1cm\n\nMasashiro Aiga graduated from the Okayama Prefectural Bizen Pottery Center in 1997. In 2003, he built a fully underground anagama kiln in Sabo. The following year, in 2004, he built a second, semi-underground anagama kiln, and continues to devote himself to his craft.","brand":"相賀真志郎","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618386038881,"sku":"1757","price":12000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/1757.jpg?v=1790235625","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p1757","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
