{"product_id":"p2967","title":"Bizen rice bowl","description":"This rice bowl is the work of Shusaku Taku, an artist who shapes Bizen ware—a craft that has matured alongside the continuous activities of people throughout history—using the various inspirations of daily life as his \"yeast.\" The form is neither too deep nor too wide, making it easy to use, and is paired with a *warikodai* (split base) inspired by Goryeo tea bowls, resulting in a remarkably dignified rice bowl. The outer surface features a characteristic amber hue achieved by applying slip with a brush, which pairs perfectly with the rich scenery of yellow sesame (*kigoma*) glaze. The interior is adorned with an elegant *hidasuki* (fire-cord) pattern, creating a piece distinctively characteristic of Taku-sensei that makes daily use a joy.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/takusyusaku.tokusyu.php\"\u003eInterview with Shusaku Taku\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nNo box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 13.0cm x 12.8cm x Height 7.3cm\n\nShusaku Taku was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Mamoru Taku.
