Description
Masao Akiya studied under Jun Isezaki, the fifth Living National Treasure of Bizen ware, and creates works full of originality within a fresh and contemporary spirit.
This is a newly fired Bizen Guinomi by Masao Akiya, just released from the kiln.
It is one of his latest works, freshly fired in February 2026.
This Guinomi is especially appealing for its brilliant surface effects produced through the anagama firing tradition of the Isezaki lineage.
Set against a clay surface marked by strong hiro, white Yohen appears beautifully across the whole piece.
Because the work was fired with abundant heat, white Goma has emerged over the entire surface, creating a highly distinctive appearance reminiscent of frost.
Inside the vessel, the hiro-toned clay is covered with fine Kigoma, and the overlap of these two elements produces a beautiful orange tone that seems especially well suited to sake.
The entire piece has been carefully faceted with a spatula, resulting in a design that is simple, refined, and stylish.
