Description
Tosyu Yamamoto was known as a master of the potter's wheel.
He favored symmetrical, refined forms.
This is a work from late in his career.
This yunomi was fired in a gas kiln co-developed with his eldest son, Yuuichi Yamamoto.
This gas kiln produces a stronger white color than typical hidaski works.
The edges are very thin, reflecting his aesthetic sensibilities on the potter's wheel.
He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1906.
He was designated a Living National Treasure in 1987.
He passed away in 1994.
