Bizen sake cup

These are the new Bizen sake cups by Go Kaneshige, marking a new chapter in his career following the completion of his anagama kiln in Kugui. These pieces were fired in his newly designed kiln, where they were thoroughly permeated by smoke. The faint, greenish natural ash glaze, characteristic of Kaneshige’s work, pairs perfectly with the deep red clay body.
