{"product_id":"p2976","title":"Bizen sake bottle","description":"This Bizen sake bottle is by Yoshiteru Koriki, a popular young artist who was an apprentice to the master Sozan Kaneshige. The bottle was thrown on the potter's wheel as if in a slow dialogue with the clay, resulting in a form with a pleasing, gentle irregularity. Its relaxed, flowing rhythm perfectly matches the vivid scarlet hue that seems to seep from deep within the surface. The unaffected, honest style ensures it never grows tiresome, and as the work matures with long-term use, it becomes a joy to walk through life with.\n\nOriginal signed wooden box (shiho-zan) with lid\u003cbr\u003e\nRim 4.8cm × Body diameter 10.8cm × Body diameter 10.7cm × Height 13.3cm, Capacity 450cc\n\nYoshiteru Koriki was born in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture. Influenced by his pottery-loving father, he aspired to a career in ceramics and, after graduating from high school, began his apprenticeship in 1989 under the master Sozan Kaneshige and his son Yuho, where he honed his skills. After seven years of training, he built his own climbing kiln in Shizutani, Bizen City, in 1996 and set out on his own, 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 Containers from the North,\" and in 2002, he was selected for the \"Tea Ceremony Modeling Exhibition\" for the first time.","brand":"高力芳照","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618519502945,"sku":"2976","price":28000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/2976.jpg?v=1790237132","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p2976","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
