A spectacular bold statement in burnt straw and raw clay by Master of the genre Yamashita Joji enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Bizen Hidasuki Hirokuchi Hanaire. Slightly elongated with four somewhat flattened sides, each is a unique perspective. It is roughly 35 cm (14 inches) diameter, 38 cm (15 inches) tall and weighs 8.2 Kg (18 pounds). It is in perfect condition.
Due to size the cost of shipping will be accrued separately.
Yamashita Joji (b. Tokyo, 1947) lives in Okayama, but began his artistic career in the Vancouver Art School in Canada. Upon returning to Japan in 1971 he apprenticed under (to be) living national treasure Isezaki Jun. He was first awarded in 1972 at the 19th Traditional Crafts Exhibition, and In 1973 was exhibited at the 2nd Nihon Togeiten. This was the start of a stellar career, seeing him establish his own kiln in Inbe in 1978. He has since received too many awards to be listed here including the Nihon Togeiten and Top prize at the 14th Tanabe Art Museum Modern Tea Forms Exhibition (Chanoyu Zokei Ten), and served as mentor to a new age of potters including Wakimoto Hiroyuki.
