Description
They inherit the careful and quiet style of Yuho Kaneshige.
In fact, when the studio was first founded, they were too afraid to use Bizen clay—it was simply too precious.
You can clearly tell how much care and respect they have for their materials.
This Mukozuke is made using clay rich in mountain soil, resulting in a surface expression that evokes the dignified austerity and vibrant earthen character often seen in the mid-period works of Yuho Kaneshige.
The firing, which prominently features Goma, further enhances this powerful, organic impression.
The central part of the vessel is gently swollen, reminiscent of a baby’s navel.
This form, combined with the shell-like curvature of the overall shape, creates a unique presence—
as if the ingredients placed within are being softly embraced by the vessel itself.
