Description
A new work by Yoshiteru Takariki, who trained under Sozan Kaneshige and Yuho Kaneshige, this is a freshly kiln-opened piece from September 2025.
Created to preserve the appeal of Bizen clay while surpassing the feel of glass steins, it features an unusually large format—approximately 650 ml—rare even in Bizen. Fired slowly on the mid-slope of a climbing kiln, the piece exhibits an exceptionally dense scarlet clay color, as if the flame itself had settled into the surface.
That scarlet tone pairs naturally with beer: it slakes a dry throat while instantly “opening up” the character of the clay on contact. For best results, chill the stein before use. The slight moisture that forms on the surface both enhances the tactile feel and helps reduce soiling, letting the clay’s nuanced character appear even more beautifully.
An affordably priced work that also makes an excellent gift.
He was born in Hyogo Prefecture in 1970.
He became a disciple of Sozan Kaneshige in 1989.
After the death of Sozan Kaneshige, he became a disciple of Yuho Kaneshige.
He became independent as a ceramic artist in 1996.
