{"product_id":"p5723","title":"Ibe Shuten","description":"This Ibe sake cup is the work of Kosuke Yashiro, who spent his years as an apprentice dreaming of working with Bizen ware in Ibe, and finally achieved his long-held ambition of building his own kiln there to make his debut. It is a straightforward, quintessential piece of Bizen ware that reflects Yashiro’s commitment to making Bizen pottery his life’s work, inspired by the pieces of the many potters who were born, raised, and passed away in Ibe. The moss-green *kase-goma* (dull sesame glaze) created by firing slowly and carefully in a climbing kiln exhibits a fineness and beautiful coloration that rivals the Kaneshige school, showcasing the kiln-firing mastery Yashiro acquired over more than 15 years of apprenticeship. Furthermore, the front of the piece features two striking flashes of scarlet, while the interior displays a scarlet hue that seems to seep from the base—a landscape typical of Bizen ware that truly reveals its value through use.\n\nNo box included (please feel free to contact us for a quote if you would like a signed wooden box).\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 7.1cm × 6.8cm × Height 4.9cm\n\nKosuke Yashiro was born in Sapporo, Hokkaido in 1979.
