{"product_id":"p5831","title":"Bizen sake cup","description":"This is a brand new Bizen sake cup, freshly taken from the kiln by Kazuki Nakamura, an artist who carries on the lineage of the master sake vessel potters Rokuro Nakamura and Shin Nakamura to create works of profound depth. While following in the footsteps of these masters, Kazuki infuses his work with a unique character that distinguishes him from both his father and grandfather. The cup is adorned with a crusty \"kase-goma\" glaze reminiscent of tree bark, while the front reveals a beautiful scarlet \"hidasuki\" flame pattern, as if opening a kimono. The rich scarlet clay, a secret of the Nakamura family, is exceptionally beautiful; it is a piece that is a joy to both behold and use, with a high potential to develop an even smoother texture the more it is seasoned with sake. The rhythmic, undulating rim and the triangular carved foot reflect the masterful techniques inherited from his grandfather, Rokuro Nakamura, which were honed over a lifetime of enjoying sake.\n\nSigned wooden box (double-braced lid)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 7.9cm x 7.6cm x Height 5.0cm\n\nKazuki Nakamura was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Shin Nakamura. After graduating from the Faculty of Letters at Okayama University in 2003, he studied under his grandfather and father to hone his pottery skills. He fired his first kiln and became an independent artist in 2006.","brand":"中村和樹","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618690584673,"sku":"5831","price":8000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/5831.jpg?v=1790240590","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p5831","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
