Description

Yoshiteru Takariki’s new Bizen kiln-variation Guinomi, freshly drawn from the kiln in September 2025.

True to his fearless, push-the-heat firing style, the exterior develops a charcoal-black ash accretion (Kigoma) that looks almost like compressed carbon.

While Takariki-san typically centers his blends on field clay with a touch of mountain clay, this piece leans a bit further toward the mountain-clay side, successfully generating a deeper, more saturated scarlet clay body. The hue is distinctly refined—subtly matte, free of any garishness—reflecting his teacher-instilled creed of prioritizing clay preparation to achieve an elevated, dignified palette.

The broad, deeply undercut foot—evocative of Sozan Kaneshige—anchors the form with quiet authority, and at fifty, Takariki-san’s mature technique is displayed with striking clarity.

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 Yuhou Kaneshige.
He became independent as a ceramic artist in 1996.
