{"product_id":"p2604","title":"Bizen Sake Cup","description":"This is the latest Bizen sake cup by the popular young artist Yoshiteru Koriki, an apprentice of the master Sozan Kaneshige. The piece features a vibrant orange hue that takes on the appearance of a persimmon when wetted with sake. The soft form of the pinched body combined with the sharp, dynamic trimming of the foot evokes the masterly, fluid technique of Sozan. The texture of the *kase-goma* (dry sesame glaze) is exquisite, making this a work that captures the true essence of Bizen clay.\n\nSigned wooden box (shiho-san style)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 7.1cm × Diameter 7.1cm × Height 4.6cm\n\nYoshiteru Koriki was born in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture. Influenced by his father, who loved pottery, he pursued a career in ceramics. After graduating from high school in 1989, he apprenticed under the master Sozan Kaneshige and his son Yuho to learn the craft. Following seven years of training, he built his own climbing kiln in Shizutani, Bizen City, in 1996 to establish his independent career, successfully firing his first kiln the following year. He held his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in 2000 and has held annual solo exhibitions ever since. In 1999, his work was selected for the \"Exhibition of Confectionery Bowls from the North I'd Like to Use,\" and in 2002, he was selected for the \"Tea Ceremony Forms Exhibition\" for the first time.","brand":"高力芳照","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618474217569,"sku":"2604","price":15000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/2604.jpg?v=1790236620","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p2604","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
