Description
Yu Fujiwara lived with a visual impairment, yet this led him to develop a daring style.
This Guinomi has a very strong presence in your hands.
However, it is perfectly balanced without being too heavy.
This piece was fired inside a protective sagger in a Noborigama kiln, featuring a deep reddish-brown Hidasuki pattern over a rich, reddish-azuki-colored clay surface.
The interior is entirely covered with glossy Hidasuki markings, giving it a distinct character from the exterior. The luster of the pattern evokes the refined feel of lacquerware or cast iron, adding a unique and elegant presence to the piece.
He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1932 as the eldest son of Kei Fujiwara.
He was designated a Living National Treasure in 1996.
(The first instance in the ceramics industry of both a parent and child receiving this designation.)
He passed away in 2001.
