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.

Gold pinstripes glimmer beneath the yellow glaze of this striking pitcher by Ono Jiro enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Yuri Kinsai Suichu. The vessel is expertly crafted, with the title Suichu being open ended, so that it may serve for serving Japanese sake, tea or any other liquid. It is 21 cm (8 inches) tall and in excellent condition. In the first photograph it is shown with a sake cup made by his wife Emi, the cup is not included.
Ono Jiro was born in Saga, in 1953, the son of future porcelain star Ono Hakuko. He graduated from the prefectural Ceramics Research facility in 1971. He continued there studying Wheel technique, graduating again in 1977. He has exhibited with the Nihon Dento Kogeiten National Traditional Crafts Exhibition, National Ceramic Art Exhibition (Nihon Togeiten.
