Description
This is a new Bizen Hidasuki sake cup by Yoshiteru Takariki, who studied under Sozan Kaneshige and Yukuni Kaneshige.
The piece was taken from the kiln in October 2025 (Reiwa 7).
It was fired in a Noborigama (climbing kiln), placed inside a sealed saggar so that no natural ash glaze would fall on it, and slowly fired to create a deeply expressive Noborigama Hidasuki sake cup.
In contrast to the more conventional combination of mogusa clay and Hidasuki fired in an electric kiln, this work shows a stronger overall redness in tone, giving it a very rustic and subdued Fire pattern.
Despite its wild appearance, the surface has a remarkably smooth and moist texture, offering a soft and pleasant feel to the touch that rivals pieces fired in an electric kiln.
Around the waist and the foot, the Hidasuki seems to seep gently up from the clay surface, allowing you to enjoy a different expression of Hidasuki compared to the linear patterns typical of electric-kiln work.
The powerful, circular form of the dignified foot suits the bold colour of this piece very well, and its somewhat primitive character is so engaging that you will find yourself staring at it again and again.
