{"product_id":"p2317","title":"Black sake bottle","description":"This is a black sake bottle by Masao Akitani, who studied under Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki and creates works full of unique originality with a fresh sensibility. Its perfectly round, ball-like form brings a new breeze to Bizen ware that we have never seen before. Numerous flowing linear patterns are carved into the form, making it look almost like a globe with satellite orbital paths, a testament to Akitani's astonishingly creative sense. The black glaze has a beautiful luster, and the generously applied sesame glaze forms a mantle of blue kiln-transmutation and gold.\n\nSigned wooden box (double-slatted lid)\u003cbr\u003e\nRim 3.5cm x Body diameter 11.0cm x Body diameter 11.0cm x Height 14.2cm Capacity approx. 600cc\n\nMasao Akitani was born in Saitama in 1968.
