{"product_id":"p7712","title":"Bizen ware plate","description":"This Bizen plate was created by Yoshiteru Koriki, an artist who pursues his own style without pretension, despite having studied under Sozan Kaneshige and Yuho Kaneshige.\u003cbr\u003e\nMade with the high-quality rice-field clay characteristic of Koriki’s work, the chocolate-colored surface has a subtle luster that is so soft, it almost feels as if it might melt under your touch.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe center of the interior features a \"nuke\" (blank space) created by a hidaski (fire cord) pattern; while this was a clever technique to utilize space within the kiln, the combination of the sesame glaze and the hidaski imparts a sense of refined beauty.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nFurthermore, yellow sesame glaze carried by the hot air has firmly adhered to the rim of the plate, creating a profound, quintessential Bizen aesthetic that harmonizes perfectly with the rich texture of the clay.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nOne cannot help but be impressed by Koriki’s meticulous craftsmanship, evident in the plate’s balanced thickness and the carving of the base.\n\nNo box included\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 25.8cm × 25.7cm × Height 3.5cm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n*Please note that a shipping fee of 500 yen applies.\n\nYoshiteru Koriki was born in Ako City, Hyogo Prefecture, in 1970.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter graduating from high school, he studied ceramics for seven years under Sozan and Yuho Kaneshige starting in 1989.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 1996, he built his own climbing kiln in Shizutani, Bizen City, and fired his first kiln the following year.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHe held his first solo exhibition in Tokyo in 2000 and has continued to hold annual solo exhibitions ever since.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 2002, he was selected for the Chanoyu Zokeiten (Tea Ceremony Form Exhibition) for the first time.","brand":"高力芳照","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46618205552737,"sku":"7712","price":9900.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/9916\/8865\/files\/7712.jpg?v=1790233142","url":"https:\/\/tourakuen.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/p7712","provider":"川口陶楽苑","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
