{"product_id":"p5758","title":"Hidasuki Sake Cup","description":"This is a Hidasuki sake cup by Yoshinobu Morimoto, an artist with an exceptional aesthetic sense who is constantly evolving in his approach to clay, firing, and form. The reduced Hidasuki, which Morimoto himself calls \"nukimono\" (extracted work), lives up to its name by drawing out a rich, deep Hidasuki pattern from within the clay. The slightly bluish surface is layered with gradations of brownish hues, creating a refined, austere atmosphere in harmony with the bleeding Hidasuki. Despite the absence of elaborate carving or flashy design, the piece possesses intricate movement and interplay, demonstrating the exquisite sculptural mastery honed by Morimoto through his research into ancient ceramics and his constant, thoughtful approach to creation. According to Morimoto, reduced Hidasuki is incredibly profound, and the clay texture will continue to develop more character and charm the more it is used.\n\nSigned wooden box to be provided at a later date (please allow some time for shipment).\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 6.1cm × 6.0cm × Height 5.9cm\n\nYoshinobu Morimoto was born in Okayama Prefecture in 1976.
