{"product_id":"p8119","title":"Ibe Hidasuki Mukozuke with Handle","description":"While being part of the Kaneshige lineage, Yuho Kaneshige has always continued to question himself, and this is a somewhat earlier Ibe-hidasuki mukozuke (side dish bowl with handle) created by him as a potter.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThis piece was fired in an electric Ibe kiln designed by Sozan Kaneshige and is said to have been created around 2002 as the culmination of his tableware production.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nEach piece is crafted with incredible detail, transcending the category of tableware and entering a realm that feels like fine ornamental craft.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe bifurcated handle, which seems to compete with the art of fine metalwork, is beautiful on its own, but above all, the calculation of the handle's diameter is magnificent, and the balance with the footed body is superb.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe delicate hidasuki (fire-cord) pattern produced by the high-quality clay is also impressive; it is a finish that allows one to fully enjoy the sharp lines created by the tatara (slab-building) technique, which is only possible because of the hidasuki that does not have natural glaze applied to it.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe body part is made to be somewhat deep, allowing it to hold dishes with liquids, and the delicate hidasuki and magnificent form will greatly enhance the appeal of the food served in it.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOriginally part of a set of eight, they are currently sold individually, and a new paulownia wood box can be produced.\nWe can also create a single paulownia box to hold multiple pieces, so please feel free to consult us about set purchases.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA piece of the same design is on display at the \"Yuho Kaneshige: The Spirit of Clay\" exhibition held at the Mashiko Museum of Ceramic Art from March 8 to May 17, 2026.\n\nNo box included (*A separate paulownia box can be made)\nWidth including handle 14.0cm x Depth 10.3cm x Height including handle 12.4cm\n\nYuho Kaneshige was born as the third son of the Intangible Cultural Property holder Sozan Kaneshige.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe learned pottery techniques under his father, Sozan Kaneshige, starting in 1975.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe became independent in 1980 and held his first solo exhibition in Okayama.\nCurrently, he mainly produces tableware, focusing on tea ceramics such as tea bowls, water jars, and flower vases.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn his tea bowls, which he particularly enjoys making, he emphasizes the inner form (mikomi) and pursues a balance between ease of use and the exterior.\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.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe received the Japan Ceramic Society Award in 2002 and the Sanyo Shimbun Cultural Merit Award in 2018.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2019, he was certified as an Okayama Prefecture-designated Important Intangible Cultural Property holder.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe also focuses on 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":46618246512737,"sku":"8119","price":16500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/8119.jpg?v=1790233792","url":"https:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/en\/products\/p8119","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
