{"product_id":"p2770","title":"Bizen ware mug","description":"This Ibe mug is the long-awaited debut work of Takao Kibata, who dedicated nine years to training as a disciple of Jun Isezaki. The form, designed for easy stacking, adds an interesting accent to what is otherwise a simple mug. The rim and handle are thinly crafted, achieving both ease of use and a sharp silhouette. Intense reduction firing has produced magnificent kiln-transmutation effects in silver and purple.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/tourakuen.jp\/kibatatakao.tokusyu.2014.php\"\u003eAbout the \"Takao Kibata New Works Exhibition\"\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nNo box included\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 11.7cm × 8.7cm × Height 7.6cm\u003cbr\u003e\n(The final image shows how they appear when stacked.)\u003cbr\u003e\n\nTakao Kibata was born in Ibe, Bizen City, in 1974.
