Description
This Guinomi is his earliest work.
The wooden box was produced later in the year and signed by him.
The back of the lid is marked Showa 41, which means that this Guinomi was made in 1966.
Although he is famous for his massive kilns, this piece was fired in the traditional Noborigama kiln of his birthplace.
I believe that the work is valuable not only as a piece of art, but also as a historical document.
He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1937.
He began studying the massive kilns used to fire ancient Bizen ware around 1972.
He fired the Aioi Oogama kiln (46m) in 1980.
He completed the Samukaze Oogama kiln (53m) in 1983.
He completed the New Samukaze Oogama kiln (85m) in 2008.
He fired the New Samukaze Oogama kiln (85m) in 2015.
