{"product_id":"p2797","title":"Bizen ware teacup","description":"This Bizen tea cup is by Takao Kibata, who made his long-awaited debut after nine years of training as a pupil of Jun Isezaki. A work that brilliantly brings out the qualities of the clay, it features a beautiful, shimmering gold glaze that accentuates—and is in turn accentuated by—the matte purple sections. The combination of excellent clay texture and simple form gives the cup an incredibly stylish, avant-garde ceramic quality. Despite its modern style, it retains the characteristic of Bizen ware that allows it to harmonize with any space or setting, making it a delight to use as an everyday tea cup.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/tourakuen.jp\/kibatatakao.tokusyu.2014.php\"\u003eAbout the \"Takao Kibata New Works Exhibition\"\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nNo box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 6.9cm x 6.9cm x Height 8.7cm\n\nTakao Kibata was born in Inbe, Bizen City, in 1974.
