{"product_id":"p1086","title":"Bizen Hidasuki Openwork Sake Flask","description":"This is a new sake bottle by Takemasa Mizukami, an artist known for his \"double-layered openwork\" technique and his delicate, magnificent Bizen ware. This work features incredibly intricate craftsmanship that clearly reflects the artist's intense passion. While the extraordinary quality of the workmanship is evident at a glance, closer inspection reveals even greater levels of detail.

The sharp, crisp edges of the carving are reminiscent of a Japanese sword, evoking a sense of almost uncanny, spirit-like intensity.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSigned wooden box (Nihōsan type)\u003cbr\u003e\nMouth diameter 4.0cm × Body diameter 10.9cm × Body diameter 10.8cm × Height 12.2cm; Capacity approx. 200ml\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTakemasa Mizukami majored in metallurgical engineering at the Shibaura Institute of Technology graduate school and spent seven years as an engineer before being drawn into the world of pottery.
