Description

Yuho Kaneshige is the third son of Sozan Kaneshige.
He inherited the Kaneshige family home and kiln from his father.
He initially presented works in the traditional Kaneshige style.
However, around 2018, he began a new challenge.
He demolished the kiln inherited from his father and built a more primitive one.
This tokkuri is a piece that was fired in this primitive kiln in November 2022.
This tokkuri features both the elegant colors of the Kaneshige style and the bold colors of antique Bizen ware.
The body, which appears spherical, actually possesses many subtle undulations, demonstrating that it was assembled with highly advanced techniques.
The work displays many wonderful kiln-fire patterns, and the color of the base is particularly outstanding.

He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture, in 1950, the third son of Sozan Kaneshige.
He became his father's apprentice in 1975.
He established himself as an independent ceramic artist in 1980.
