{"product_id":"p5447","title":"Bizen triangular sake bottle","description":"This is a freshly kiln-fired Bizen triangular sake bottle by Kazuki Nakamura, a potter who creates deeply flavorful works while following in the footsteps of master sake-ware artisans Rokuro and Makoto Nakamura. While inheriting the lineage of these masters, this piece is quintessentially Kazuki, concealing a unique character in its style that sets it apart from his father and grandfather. It is draped in a rugged, intense *kase-goma* (crusty sesame) glaze, while revealing a beautiful scarlet hue on the front, almost as if opening a kimono. The rich, scarlet clay body—a Nakamura family secret—is exquisite; it is a delight both to behold and to use, with a surface that will grow smoother and more lustrous with time, promising exceptional potential as a vessel for sake. The bottle is a slightly low-profile, triangular *katatsuki* (shouldered) shape; its soft, pouch-like wheel-thrown form echoes the style of his grandfather, Rokuro, while the indentations that make it easy to hold reveal Kazuki’s own perspective as a sake lover.\n\nSigned wooden box (double-slatted)\u003cbr\u003e\nRim 3.9cm × Body diameter 9.5cm × Body diameter 9.5cm × Height 12.7cm, Capacity approx. 380cc\n\nKazuki Nakamura was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Makoto Nakamura. After graduating from the Faculty of Letters at Okayama University in 2003, he studied under his grandfather and father to hone his pottery skills.
