{"product_id":"p5627","title":"Bizen fan-shaped plate","description":"This is a new Bizen fan-shaped plate by Kazuhiro Mori, who has honed his craft by participating in numerous large kiln projects as the eldest son of the Bizen prodigy, Togaku Mori. This piece was fired in the 20-meter kiln, one of the three kilns located in Ushimado. Kazuhiro Mori’s signature style of creating each piece individually using plaster molds pairs perfectly with the fan-shaped form, resulting in a highly sophisticated work. Furthermore, the finely refined white clay from Samukawa contributes to the delicate details of the fan shape and the execution of the tripod feet. Scattered, blizzard-like *goma* (ash glaze) mingles with a white spot resembling the Japanese flag and powerful *hidasuki* (fire-cord) markings reminiscent of pine branches, constructing a scene that looks just like a painting.\n\nNo box\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth 17.8cm × Depth 11.8cm × Height 2.6cm\n\nKazuhiro Mori was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1966 as the eldest son of Togaku Mori.
