{"product_id":"p5809","title":"Bizen ware mug","description":"This is a mug by Masao Akiya, an artist who studied under Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki and creates works full of his own unique originality within a new spirit. This mug is attractive for its spectacular scenery created by the traditional Anagama kiln firing of the Isezaki school, and it is a wonderful piece that allows you to enjoy the stylish and beautiful kiln-altered colors that are characteristic of Mr. Akiya's work. It has been fired with plenty of heat, resulting in a golden sesame glaze flowing like a waterfall on the front side facing the flame, while the back side features a rustic, dark brown surface as if the iron content of the clay has been extracted. There is also plenty of beautiful sesame glaze pooled inside, making it a piece rich in scenery that can be enjoyed from any angle.\n\nNo box included\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 11.5cm x 9.0cm x Height 6.8cm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n*Shipping fee is 500 yen.\n\nMasao Akiya was born in Saitama in 1968.
