{"product_id":"p1577","title":"Black sake bottle","description":"This brand-new black sake bottle, just removed from the kiln, is a work by Masao Akitani, who studied under Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki and creates works overflowing with his own unique originality within a fresh spirit. The piece was fired until the slip-coated surface transformed into a dark brown hue. Numerous \"tama-dare\" (bead-like drips) gather from the back to the front, creating the sesame glaze pellets that, along with the shell marks, are the charm of this piece. On the shoulder, ash that accumulated on the kiln wall has flowed down, revealing a white kiln-changed natural glaze.\n\nOriginal signed wooden box to be provided at a later date (please allow some time for shipping).\u003cbr\u003e\nRim 3.9cm x Body 9.3cm x 8.7cm x Height 14.3cm, Capacity approx. 400cc\n\nMasao Akitani was born in Saitama in 1968.
