{"product_id":"p5866","title":"Bizen tripod dish","description":"This Bizen tripod dish is by Takashi Soga, who challenges the aesthetics of antiquity by recreating the same environment in which Old Bizen was fired. To replicate the style of the Old Bizen period, no firebricks or similar materials were used; the kiln is fired in a way that defies modern common sense regarding internal thermal efficiency. Because of this, it exhibits an exquisite clay texture that transcends modern beauty and approaches that of Old Bizen. The hue of the hidasuki (fire-cord) pattern, which seems to assimilate into the clay surface, is remarkably understated and captures the characteristic look of Old Bizen hidasuki perfectly. The clay texture, which appears worn in places—with iron deposits erupting and small pebbles peeking through—creates an outstanding atmosphere reminiscent of Old Bizen. The form, which follows the tradition of Old Bizen, is very elegant, and the height provided by the three legs makes for a wonderful, three-dimensional presentation when plating.\n\nNo box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 19.2cm x 17.7cm x Height 2.9cm\n\nTakashi Soga was born in Tokyo in 1984. He studied under Jun Isezaki in 2009 and built his own kiln in Kuguizaka, Bizen City, in 2012.
