Description
Tosyu Yamamoto was known as a master of the potter's wheel.
He favored symmetrical, refined forms.
This is a work from his later career.
This Guinomi features a firing pattern known as Kase-Yohen.
The pattern is a combination of kasegoma—a green natural ash glaze—and Haikaburi-Yohen, which occurs near the burned charcoal.
The red clay color inside will appear even more beautiful when moistened by sake during use.
The surface appears to have a subtle golden effect.
He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, in 1906.
He was designated a Living National Treasure in 1987.
He passed away in 1994.
