By Appointment is best. You might get lucky just popping by, but a great deal of the month I am out visiting artists or scouring up new items, so days in the gallery are limited.

Decorated with only a single platinum thumbprint this Unmistakable Crimson bowl by Masatomo turns inward as it closes upon the mouth. It is 15 cm (6 inches) diameter, 8 cm (just more than 3 inches) tall and in perfect condition, enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Red Chawan and comes directly from the artist.
Masatomo Toi was born in Aichi Prefecture in 1992, and graduated the Design course at the Tajimi Ceramics Research Facility in 2019. Since he has been developing his series of “Thorny” vessels and objects. At the same time he has been studying the way of tea and other traditional arts such as flower arrangement, and his use of negative space is masterful. His works have been featured in a number of group and juried exhibitions. He is currently midway through a year of study and experimentation abroad, and we expect great things in his future.
