{"product_id":"p1362","title":"Bizen Sake Cup","description":"This is a Bizen sake cup by Takeshi Ikenishi, an artist whose work captivates people with its brilliance and boldness, and who, true to the name of his \"Fugen-gama\" (Silent Kiln), imbues his pieces with a profound message. It is a masterpiece created with an uncompromising selection of clay. The dark brown clay surface, which looks as though it would absorb sake beautifully, transitions into a rich, glossy black texture bathed in \"goma\" (ash glaze), resulting in a heavy, substantial finish reminiscent of antique Bizen ware. With its powerful interior spiral and fine, scattered ash droplets, it is a work that hits the mark with subtle, refined artistry.\n\nThis is a Bizen sake cup by Takeshi Ikenishi, an artist whose work captivates people with its brilliance and boldness, and who, true to the name of his \"Fugen-gama\" (Silent Kiln), imbues his pieces with a profound message.
