{"product_id":"p4138","title":"Kohiki Sake Cup","description":"This is a new Kohiki sake cup by Toru Ichikawa, who made a striking debut after studying under Ryuichi Kakurezaki. While one is immediately drawn to the original, avant-garde design, holding it in your hands reveals the immense passion he pours into expressing the beauty of the clay itself. Creating these beautiful curves and edges requires a deep understanding of the material, along with an extraordinary amount of time and meticulous effort; this piece was born from an unrelenting dedication to forging the clay, much like a master swordsmith. Named \"Kohiki\" (brushed slip), this piece expresses a unique world of white through the layering of three different whites: a base slip, a deeper white slip, and a thick, final white glaze. The vibrant splashes of indigo and black glaze across the surface provide a truly excellent accent.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/blog\/2016\/06\/ichikawa-new2016june.html\"\u003eView the blog post for Toru Ichikawa's new works\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nSigned wooden box to follow (please allow some time for delivery)\u003cbr\u003e\n5.5cm diameter x 6.1cm diameter x 6.9cm height\n\nToru Ichikawa was born in Tokyo.
