{"product_id":"p4031","title":"Amber glazed glass","description":"This amber-glazed glass by Koji Nakahara, who studied under Fumio Kawabata and aims to create works suited to modern living, incorporates the \"best of both worlds\" approach he values. The exterior features a glaze intended to increase durability and enhance its aesthetic, while the interior uses Bizen's *hidaski* (fire-cord) technique for ease of use and to allow the appearance to evolve over time. By layering straw-ash glaze over the amber glaze, he has achieved a unique texture that offers a fresh take on the Madara Karatsu style. To further highlight the profound beauty of the straw-ash glaze, the carved patterns on the surface are twisted, adding to the visual depth and perfection of the piece.\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.9cm × 8.7cm × Height 9.0cm\n\nKoji Nakahara was born in Osaka Prefecture in 1978.
