{"product_id":"p2970","title":"Bizen rice bowl","description":"This rice bowl is the work of Shusaku Taku, an artist who takes the everyday emotions he experiences and lets them ferment like yeast to give shape to Bizen ware—a craft that has matured alongside the continuous activities of people throughout history. The bowl features a balanced form that is neither too deep nor too wide, paired with a bamboo-node foot inspired by Goryeo tea bowls, resulting in a truly dignified piece. The outer surface is brushed with slip, creating a distinctive amber-colored skin that pairs perfectly with the rich scenery of yellow sesame-like ash (hidasuki). The interior is adorned with an elegant crimson fire-cord (hidasuki) pattern, making it a vessel typical of Taku’s style that makes every use a delight.\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 13.1cm x 12.8cm x Height 7.2cm\n\nShusaku Taku was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Mamoru Taku.
