Description

This is a new Bizen sake cup by Go Kaneshige, marking a new chapter in his career following the completion of his anagama kiln in Kugui. The piece was fired while deeply buried in ash within the kiln, resulting in a tall, tea-bowl-style form with a vibrant scarlet hue. It is thin-walled and easy to handle; as you enjoy using it, the scarlet color will only continue to deepen. Signed wooden box to be provided later (please allow some time for shipment)
Diameter 8.3cm x 8.2cm x Height 5.6cm Go Kaneshige was born as the second son of the Intangible Cultural Property holder Michiaki Kaneshige, and is the grandson of the legendary Living National Treasure Toyo Kaneshige. Go Kaneshige graduated from the Ashiya College of Art in 1988. After working at the Atelier Hikousen Ceramic Research Institute, he returned to Bizen in 1992. He exhibited at the Bizen Young Artists Exhibition in September 1996 and has been active in shows such as the Kaneshige Family Exhibition since May 1999.
