{"product_id":"p3068","title":"Bizen square plate","description":"This is a new 4-sun Bizen plate by Yoshinobu Morimoto, an artist with an exceptional aesthetic sense who continues to evolve in his work with clay, firing, and craftsmanship. Focusing on the theme of \"toriawase\" (harmonious combination), which has been central to his recent work, we commissioned these pieces to be used in concert with the sake vessels and other items he has released in the past. Built upon a base of wabi-sabi kiln changes—such as the withered texture of goma (ash glaze) and the weathered appearance of kase-goma—the pieces incorporate a vibrant, flame-like scarlet, creating a world of quiet, austere elegance despite the intense contrast. The orthodox form is designed to let the scenery of the glaze take center stage, ensuring the pieces are easy to pair with others.\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 21.0cm x 15.3cm x Height 2.4cm\n\nYoshinobu Morimoto was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1976.
