Description
Yuho Kaneshige, while belonging to the Kaneshige lineage, has always continued to question himself and create as an individual ceramic artist.
This is a somewhat earlier Imbe Hidasuki handled Mukozuke by Yuho Kaneshige.
It was fired in the electric kiln at Imbe designed by Sozan Kaneshige, and is said to have been made around 2002 as a culmination of his work in tableware.
Each piece is crafted with extraordinary care and precision, resulting in a level of detail that seems to go beyond the category of functional tableware and enter the realm of fine artistry.
As if competing in the art of delicate workmanship, the bifurcated handle is beautiful in itself, but above all, the proportions are masterfully calculated, with the slenderness of the handle and the balance in scale with the footed body being especially remarkable.
The delicate Hidasuki achieved with high-quality clay is also superb, and because this is Hidasuki without natural ash glaze, the sharply defined lines made possible by slab construction can be fully appreciated.
The body is made somewhat deep, making it suitable even for dishes with sauces or broth, while the delicate Hidasuki and elegant form greatly enhance the appeal of whatever food is served in it.
Originally, this work was made as part of a set of eight pieces, but it is now being offered individually, and a new wooden box can be made for it.
A wooden box for storing multiple pieces can also be prepared, so please feel free to inquire if you are considering purchasing more than one.
A work of the same form is currently on display in the exhibition “Yuho Kaneshige: The Kotodama of Clay,” held at the Mashiko Museum of Ceramic Art from March 8 to May 17, 2026.
He was born in Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture in 1950 as the third son of Sozan Kaneshige.
He became his father's disciple in 1975.
He became independent as a ceramic artist in 1980.
