{"product_id":"p7305","title":"Ibe Hidasuki Mukozuke with Handle","description":"This is a somewhat earlier Ibe-hidasuki handled mukozuke dish by Yuho Kaneshige, an artist who, while belonging to the Kaneshige lineage, constantly poses questions to himself and creates works as an individual potter.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFired in an Ibe-style electric kiln designed by Sozan Kaneshige, this piece was created around 2002 as a culmination of his tableware production.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEach piece is meticulously crafted in such fine detail that it transcends the category of tableware, venturing into the realm of intricate art objects.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe bifurcated handle, appearing as if to compete in technical skill, is beautiful on its own, but above all, the calculation of its slender diameter is masterful, and the balance with the footed body is superb.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe delicate hidasuki (fire-cord) pattern produced by high-quality clay is also magnificent; because it is hidasuki, which lacks natural glaze, one can fully enjoy the sharp lines created through the tatara (slab-building) technique.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe body is made slightly deep, making it suitable for dishes with sauce, and the combination of the delicate hidasuki and the magnificent form will greatly enhance the appeal of the food served.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginally part of a set of eight, these are now sold individually, and a new paulownia wood box can be made for it. We can also create boxes that house multiple pieces, so please feel free to consult us regarding set purchases.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAn identical piece is on display at the \"Yuho Kaneshige: Kotodama of Clay\" exhibition, held at the Mashiko Museum of Ceramic Art from March 8 to May 17, 2026.\n\nNo box (a paulownia box can be made separately)\nWidth including handle 13.8cm x Depth 10.5cm x Height including handle 12.3cm\n\nYuho Kaneshige was born as the third son of the holder of intangible cultural properties, Sozan Kaneshige.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe began learning pottery techniques under his father, Sozan Kaneshige, in 1975.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe became independent in 1980 and held his first solo exhibition in Okayama.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe currently focuses on producing tableware, primarily tea ceramics such as tea bowls, water jars, and flower vases.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFor his tea bowls, which he particularly loves, he places importance on the interior form (mikomi) and pursues the balance between comfort in use and the exterior appearance.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe has received the Sanyo Shimbun Award at the prefectural exhibition, the Encouragement Award at the Exhibition of Tea Ceremony Forms, and the Tanko Biennale Encouragement Award, among others.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe received the Japan Ceramic Society Award in 2002 and the Sanyo Shimbun Cultural Merit Award in 2018.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2019, he was certified as a holder of an important intangible cultural property designated by Okayama Prefecture.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe is also dedicated to his solo exhibitions, which are held at various locations both within and outside the prefecture.","brand":"金重有邦","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618116489313,"sku":"7305","price":16500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/7305.jpg?v=1790232510","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p7305","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
