A spectacular heavy basin rendered from the earth covered in rich emerald glaze by Mizuno Sokaku enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Oribe Kaki. Measuring 25 x 23 x 16 cm (10 x 9 x 6 inches) and literally hollowed out from a block of clay, it weighs 5.7 kg (12-1/2 pounds) and is in excellent condition.
Mizuno Sokaku (1922-1997) was heavily influenced by the multi-talented artist Fujii Tatsukichi, a central figure in Japan’s modern kōgei (arts and crafts) movement. Sokaku allowed himself to be unfettered in approach to the plastic arts, and his unconventional works still draw interest today. He exhibited with the Nihon Togeiten National Ceramics Exhibition, the Seto Togeiten and Asahi Togeiten where he was awarded, the Nihon Kogeiten National Crafts Exhibition, the Nitten where he was awarded, and his work was selected n juried exhibitions to travel to America and New Zealand. His work is held in the Achi Prefectural Museum of Art, Queensland Art Gallery,
