{"product_id":"p1703","title":"Bizen Sake Cup","description":"This Bizen sake cup is by Masao Akitani, who studied under Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki and creates works brimming with original character amidst a modern sensibility. While Mr. Akitani is known for his elaborate designs, this is a remarkably simple and generously sized piece—a rarity for him. It was formed using a sandy clay, after which the surface was lightly tapped with a stone to create the fine, textured finish known as *ishime-hada*. The dry quality of the clay combined with a light yellow *goma* (sesame ash glaze) and the stone-textured surface gives this piece a dry, minimalist aesthetic that offers a unique take on traditional Bizen ware.\n\nSigned wooden box (double-slatted lid)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.7cm × Diameter 8.2cm × Height 4.5cm","brand":"秋谷昌央","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618381582433,"sku":"1703","price":6000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/1703.jpg?v=1790235576","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p1703","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
