{"product_id":"p3705","title":"Bizen Hidasuki Polka-Dot Teacup","description":"This is a new Bizen Hidasuki (fire-cord) polka-dot yunomi (teacup) by Yoshiteru Koriki, a popular young artist and former apprentice to the master Sozan Kaneshige. In this piece, the typical Hidasuki and polka-dot patterns are reversed, creating a mysterious landscape where white spots trail across the surface like footprints. The entire body is covered in Hidasuki, often referred to as \"all-over Hidasuki,\" which gives the piece a remarkably smooth texture that is a pleasure to hold. The interior reveals the deep, authentic white clay of Bizen Hidasuki, which will evolve into a rich, sophisticated hue with continued use. It comes in a paulownan wood box, making it an ideal gift.\n\nSigned wooden box (double-slat lid)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.0cm × 7.9cm × Height 8.7cm\n\nYoshiteru Koriki was born in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture. Influenced by his father, a lover of ceramics, he aspired to pursue pottery. After graduating from high school in 1989, he studied ceramic techniques under the master Sozan Kaneshige and his son, Yuho Kaneshige. Following seven years of apprenticeship, he established his own climbing kiln in Shizutani, Bizen City in 1996 and successfully produced his first firing the following year. He held his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in 2000 and has held solo exhibitions every year since. In 1999, he was selected for the \"Sweets Containers I Would Like to Use\" exhibition, and in 2002, he was selected for the \"Chanoyu (Tea Ceremony) Modeling\" exhibition for the first time.","brand":"高力芳照","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618545127521,"sku":"3705","price":5500.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/3705.jpg?v=1790238123","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p3705","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
