Description
This is a newly fired Bizen Beerglass by Masao Akiya, who studied under Jun Isezaki, the fifth Living National Treasure of Bizen ware, and creates highly original works with a fresh and distinctive spirit.
This is one of his latest works, newly fired in February 2026.
This Beerglass is attractive for its vivid fire effects created through the traditional anagama firing of the Isezaki school. Based on a caramel-brown clay surface, beautiful scattered Goma appears across the entire piece.
In the interior, the distinctive character of the anagama kiln, where the flame rushes powerfully toward the back of the kiln, is especially well expressed. Fine Tobi-Goma gathers toward the bottom, naturally drawing the eye whenever the piece is used.
The form has a distinctive design reminiscent of the Beerglass by his master, Jun Isezaki. In addition, the lower section has been carved in a way that resembles curtain tucks, adding a charming and interesting accent to the piece.
