{"product_id":"p3051","title":"Bizen sake bottle","description":"This is a slightly earlier Bizen sake flask (tokkuri) by Go Kaneshige, who continues his research and pottery making at his kiln in Kugui. The piece was created around the year 2000 for the Kaneshige Family Exhibition, using a kiln that was restored and remodeled by Michiaki Kaneshige in 1980, which had originally been one of Toyo Kaneshige’s kilns. The \"kase\" (dry\/matte) kiln change, truly characteristic of the Kaneshige school, is magnificent; the \"kase-goma\" (dry sesame glaze) is fine-grained, the kiln-altered colors are seductive, and the scarlet markings achieve a perfect balance between vibrancy and elegance, resulting in a flawless piece. The form also beautifully utilizes the natural, elegant curves of the shallot-shaped silhouette, a hallmark of Go Kaneshige’s style.\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san) included\u003cbr\u003e\nRim 4.4cm × Body diameter 9.1cm × Body diameter 8.9cm × Height 15.1cm　　Capacity approx. 320cc\n\nGo Kaneshige was born as the second son of Intangible Cultural Property holder Michiaki Kaneshige and is the grandson of the great Living National Treasure, Toyo Kaneshige.
