{"product_id":"p1525","title":"Bizen Hidasuki Teacup","description":"This is a Bizen hidaski yunomi (tea cup) by Tomio Ochi, who works diligently at his kiln under the guidance of Yasuhito Abe, pouring his ever-unsatisfied passion into his pottery. This piece aims for an \"Ochi-hidaski\" that goes beyond the limits, surpassing what is normally achievable with the hidaski technique. Fired at temperatures more than 100 degrees higher than usual, the cup embodies lines that undulate like a dragon and a scarlet color as vivid as flame. It is a work that clearly demonstrates the tireless effort Ochi puts into his craft, with the meticulousness of the overall form further elevating its quality.\n\nSigned wooden box (two-way slat box)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 7.9cm x Diameter 7.7cm x Height 9.5cm\n\nTomio Ochi graduated from Ehime Prefectural Niihama Technical High School in 1949. In 1952, he moved to Tokyo to study oil painting and sculpture. Thereafter, he pursued painting and sculpture while working at a company. In 1997, he visited Yasuhito Abe in Ushimado, Setouchi City, Okayama Prefecture, to receive his tutelage. He built his own kiln in Ushimado in 1998, and has since been working on Bizen ware, drawing upon his background in sculpture and painting.","brand":"越智富雄","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618352681057,"sku":"1525","price":8000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/1525.jpg?v=1790235326","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p1525","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
