{"product_id":"p6750","title":"Bizen rectangular plate","description":"This is a newly kiln-fired Bizen rectangular plate by Kazuki Nakamura, an artist who creates works of profound depth while following in the footsteps of the master sake ware craftsmen, Rokuro Nakamura and Shin Nakamura.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWhile inheriting the lineage of these master sake ware potters, this piece is quintessentially Kazuki, incorporating a unique flair into his style that distinguishes it from that of his father and grandfather.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFresh from the kiln in October 2022, this latest work is a rectangular plate that showcases the quintessential rich scarlet hues of the Nakamura family combined with beautiful kiln-transformation effects.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIt features the same sunset-like \"hi-iro\" (scarlet) highlights often seen in their sake ware, imbuing this tableware with the same distinct allure found in fine liquor vessels.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAt just under 30 cm in width, it is a practical size for everyday use. The form, meticulously finished using the \"tataki\" (hand-beaten) technique, is simple and understated, ensuring that even with the vibrant kiln-transformed scarlet colors, the plate does not overwhelm and instead enhances the presentation of the food.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDampening the plate with water before use will help prevent stains from soaking in and will also bring out the beauty of the scarlet hues even more vividly.\n\nNo box included\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 28.6cm × 16.0cm × 4.7cm (Height)\n\nKazuki Nakamura was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, in 1980 as the eldest son of Shin Nakamura.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter graduating from the Faculty of Letters at Okayama University in 2003, he studied under his grandfather, Rokuro Nakamura, and his father, Shin Nakamura, to hone his pottery techniques.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe fired his first kiln and established his own independent studio in 2006.","brand":"中村和樹","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618061865057,"sku":"6750","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/6750.jpg?v=1790231805","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p6750","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
