Description
Yuho Kaneshige is the third son of Sozan Kaneshige.
He inherited Inbe's house and kiln from his father.
He was presenting traditional Kaneshige style works.
But around 2018 he started a new challenge.
He demolished the kiln that he inherited from his father and made a more primitive kiln.
This Guinomi was burned around 2001.
This piece is made using clay that Kaneshige Yuhō personally excavated in the Karatsu region.
It beautifully combines his meticulous craftsmanship with the rustic charm of Karatsu ware.
The coarse clay—an essential characteristic of true Karatsu—gives the piece a bold presence, with the foot showing elegant chirimen-jimo (crepe-like wrinkles) for a refined, subdued finish.
The glaze is a simple combination of ash glaze and iron decoration, but he uses carefully selected natural materials.
Compact and elegant in form, this is a fine piece best enjoyed alongside a Bizen tokkuri.
