{"product_id":"p2433","title":"Bizen sake cup","description":"This Bizen sake cup is the work of Mashiro Aiga, an artist known for creating uncompromising works of unyielding integrity. Having pushed the *sangiri* (kiln-altered) technique to its absolute limit, this piece possesses a presence reminiscent of a jagged reef weathered by thousands of years of rough seas. Despite being enveloped in such intense kiln transformation, the unglazed areas reveal a profound *shiso*-red hue, hinting at the meticulous selection process undertaken by the artist. The dramatic kiln effects accentuate the clarity of the sake, while the exquisite *shiso* color deepens into an even more beautiful shade during use.\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san style)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.0cm x 7.7cm x Height 5.0cm\n\nMashiro Aiga graduated from the Okayama Prefectural Bizen Pottery Center in 1997. In 2003, he built a fully underground anagama kiln in Sabo, followed by a second, semi-underground anagama kiln in 2004, where he continues to dedicate himself to his craft.","brand":"相賀真志郎","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618449182817,"sku":"2433","price":12000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/2433.jpg?v=1790236405","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p2433","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
