An elegant bowl swept in a Zen circle of ink by Shigemori Yoko, the vessel evidencing several dips in white slip, creating a captivating sensibility which contests the simplicity of the coloration. It is 14 cm diameter, 8 cm tall and in perfect condition, directly from the artist’ family and comes enclosed in a wooden box annotated by her nephew.
