Description

Mitsuru Isezaki is one of the potters who inherited the Bizen ware style revived by Toyo Kaneshige.
His pottery style is simple and unadorned, showcasing the natural beauty of the clay.
This sake bottle features a traditional round shape known as "Kabura" (turnip).
The surface of the bottle displays a rainbow-colored firing pattern called "Kinsai."
It is a very elegant piece; the moment I saw it, I felt inspired to use it as a vase.

He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, in 1934.
He was designated as an Important Intangible Cultural Property by the prefecture in 1998.
He passed away in 2011.
