While it features a sleek, modern design, its thick construction gives it a significant presence, much like a giant coin. It is a stylish piece that would look stunning serving sushi, sashimi, or salad, and its unique oval cutout also makes it a wonderful decorative display plate. Each piece comes in its own signed wooden box (tomobako), making it an ideal gift.\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san style)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 20.8cm x 20.9cm x Height 1.8cm\n\nKoichiro Isezaki was born as the eldest son of Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki. The Isezaki family is a prestigious lineage in Bizen ware; his grandfather was the Intangible Cultural Property holder Yozan Isezaki, and his uncle was the Intangible Cultural Property holder Mitsuru Isezaki, and he himself aspired to pottery from an early age. After graduating from the Department of Sculpture at Tokyo Zokei University in 1994, he studied abroad in the United States. He learned pottery for about two years under Jeff Shapiro, a ceramic artist based in New York City, which greatly broadened his perspective on art and ceramics. After returning to Japan in 2000, he continued his training under the guidance of his father and his father's apprentices. In 2002, he submitted his work to the Tanabe Museum of Art's Tea Ceremony Exhibition for the first time and was selected.","brand":"伊勢崎晃一朗","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618520911969,"sku":"3020","price":14000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/3020.jpg?v=1790237196","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p3020","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
