{"product_id":"p5812","title":"Hidasuki teacup","description":"This is a Hidasuki yunomi (tea cup) that was fired just recently by Tomio Ochi, an artist who diligently worked at the kiln under the tutelage of Yasuhito Abe, pouring his unfulfilled aspirations into his ceramics. It is a solid, substantial piece that has been fired to a high degree of hardness, conveying a strength as if the clay itself has been condensed into high density. The Hidasuki (fire-cord) markings cover more of the surface than the bare clay, showcasing Mr. Ochi's signature style where the markings seem to melt deep into the viscous clay texture. As a large tea cup with generous capacity, it is a versatile piece that can be used for various purposes.\n\nNo box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.4cm × 8.3cm × Height 8.8cm\n\nTomio Ochi graduated from Niihama Technical High School in Ehime Prefecture in 1949. In 1952, he moved to Tokyo to study oil painting and sculpture. Thereafter, he pursued painting and sculpture while working at a company. In 1997, he visited and received instruction from Yasuhito Abe in Ushimado, Setouchi City, Okayama Prefecture. He built his own kiln in Ushimado in 1998, and has since been dedicated to the creation of Bizen ware, drawing upon his experience in sculpture and painting.","brand":"越智富雄","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618690125921,"sku":"5812","price":7000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/5812.jpg?v=1790240566","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p5812","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
