{"product_id":"p2295","title":"Shuten","description":"This is a Bizen sake cup by Yukio Tomori, who began his pottery career in Okinawa before studying under Master Taisetsu Sueishi in Bizen. His style captures the clay in its most dynamic state, as he seeks to present the \"most beautiful moment\" he witnesses while constantly manipulating the form on the potter's wheel. The cup has a low, sprawling posture reminiscent of a *badarai* (horse-trough) tea bowl, making it easy to hold and highly practical. It features a crusty *kase-goma* ash glaze and a beautiful scarlet *hi-iro* hue, while its wide mouth illuminates the sake within, promising a superb drinking experience.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/tourakuen.jp\/tomori.yukio.tokusyu.php\"\u003e\"Yukio Tomori Special Feature\"\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nSigned wooden box to be provided at a later date (please allow some time for delivery)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 9.3cm x Diameter 8.6cm x Height 4.3cm\n\nYukio Tomori was born on Miyako Island, Okinawa. He was inspired to pursue pottery after encountering wood-fired stoneware during his high school years. He began his training at Tsunami-yama Pottery in Okinawa in 1984. Later, captivated by Bizen ware during his travels to various pottery regions, he studied under Master Taisetsu Sueishi for four years starting in 1987. He built his own anagama kiln in 1999 and became independent after his first firing. Since his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in 2001, he has held exhibitions in various locations, including Fukushima, Chiba, Osaka, Ehime, and Miyako Island.","brand":"友利幸夫","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618433126497,"sku":"2295","price":4000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/2295.jpg?v=1790236236","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p2295","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
