Ash glaze clings thick to the surface of this truly massive Bizen platter by Iwamoto Shuichi enclosed in the original signed wooden box. Three Nuke connected by hidasuki straw lines form fire windows in the covering of green ash glaze. The piece is 23 inches (58 cm) diameter, 3-1/2 inches (9 cm) tall and in excellent condition. Shuichi (b. 1935) was born and raised in Bizen. Like many potters, he has not restricted himself to the plastic arts, but has also been accepted as an oil painter at the Nikka-ten Exhibition, Japan’s preeminent National Oil Painting exhibition. It was in 1970 that he made the switch to potting, graduating the Okayama Prefectural Ceramics Center two years later. , With a painters eye he quickly amassed a series of prizes in various exhibitions throughout Japan including the Nihon Dento Kogei Ten (National Traditional Crafts Exhibition) and the Chunichi Kokusai Togei Ten as well as the influential Chanoyu Zokei Ten (Sculptural Forms in Tea Exhibition) held at the Tanabe Museum and is widely exhibited both domestically and abroad. Due to size the cost of shipping will be acrued seperately for this piece. |
