Koji Nakahara - Bizen Tsurukame Guinomi
19,800 YENSold out
size : W7.5cm×7.1cm×H5.8cmThis Guinomi is a new work by Koji Nakahara.
It was fired in the kiln of his mentor, Fumio Kawabata.
The entire Guinomi is carved with cranes and turtles, creating a scene where a turtle seems to chase a flying crane across a shared space.
The figures of the crane and turtle are carefully carved from the thick clay body, with fine details in the wings, shell, and claws—truly impressive craftsmanship.
Though thickly made, the piece is well-balanced and surprisingly light, offering a comfortable and natural feel in the hand despite its bold size.
Natural glaze is applied only in select areas to highlight the carvings.
The crane appears beautifully accented in white by flame effects, while Tobi-Goma patterns on the turtle resemble its shell, adding an interesting texture.
Rokuro Nakamura - Bizen Guinomi
385,000 YENSold out
size : W8.6cm×8.5cm×H3.3cmThis is Guinomi made by Rokuro Nakamura who is called a master of sake ware.
The red clay color on the front part makes it even more beautiful when you use it by getting wet with sake.
I presume that this Guinomi was fired when he was about 90 years old.
The beautiful Yohen created in the fierce fire created during the firing of the kiln is wonderful.
Other beautiful scarlet clay colors and Kase-goma also occur and have very gorgeous fire patterns.
The wiggly body design is conceived to fit securely in the human hand.

This Guinomi expresses the red color beautifully by the Nakamura family's original fire method.
The strong fire pattern and the bright scarlet color are beautiful.
When drinking Sake, the bright scarlet color changes more beautifully with water.
Koji Nakahara - Bizen Dragon Guinomi
19,800 YENSold out
size : W8.1cm×8.0cm×H5.3cmThis Guinomi is a new work by Koji Nakahara.
It was fired in the kiln of his mentor, Fumio Kawabata.
A dragon is intricately carved across the entire surface, with the vessel imagined as a sky where the dragon glides peacefully through clouds.
Carved from a thickly formed body, the dragon features fine details in the scales, claws, and whiskers—executed with remarkable precision.
Although the piece is thick and bold in form, the weight is carefully balanced, making it surprisingly light and comfortable to hold.
To highlight the carving, natural ash glaze is applied only in selected areas.
White Kase-Goma resembling clouds and delicate Tobi-Goma inside the cup add charm to the overall expression.
Kosuke keneshige - Bizen Guinomi
44,000 YEN
size : W6.7cm×6.5cm×H6.4cmKousuke Kaneshige is the third son of Toyo Kaneshige.
He lives in Kagato, Bizen City, where potters have lived since the old days.
He creates traditional Bizen ware and innovative sculptures while following the teachings of his father, Toyo Kaneshige.
This Guinomi was fired in 2006.
He keeps the style of Bizen ware of Kaneshige Clan and feels that he uses very good clay.
Beautiful red and orange clay colors appear on the front and inside of this Guinomi.
This Guinomi had signs of having been used for some time, so we cleaned it in our store.
Shuroku Harada - Bizen Guinomi
132,000 YENSold out
size : W6.8cm×6.6cm×H6.9cmThis Guinomi comes with a pottery record up to 2004 and was fired in the later period of Shuroku Harada’s own kiln.
Unlike the elegant image typical of Hidasuki works, this piece features an extremely hard, tightly fired Hidasuki surface.
It was protected from direct flame by being placed inside a saggar within an anagama kiln, resulting in a slightly bluish white clay body with matte orange Hidasuki markings.
On the front, there is a heart motif, a design favored by Shuroku Harada.
Instead of simply carving the surface, he removed part of the clay body itself, reinforced it from the inside, and even repaired the heart’s edge by hand.
The Guinomi has a solid presence without feeling overly heavy, offering a comfortable grip thanks to its smooth surface and gently curved body.
Please note: after placing water inside for about three hours, a slight dampness appears at the bottom of the heart motif.
Sohei Takashima - Bizen Kaku Guinomi
14,300 YENSold out
size : W6.3cm×6.0cm×H6.5cmHe is a disciple of Jun Isezaki.
This is his newest work, published at the end of 2024.
This ambitious work combines firing in both wood and kerosene kilns to achieve a rich yet subdued Hidasuki.
Freely exploring new techniques without being bound by tradition, the artist challenges ancient aesthetics with the latest firing knowledge.
The key to the deep, refined tone lies in the carefully controlled kerosene kiln finish, which was perfected through extensive research to create a soft luster and a rich depth of color.
On top of the vivid reddish clay surface, well-fired mustard-colored Kigoma patterns appear,
creating a harmonious and sophisticated atmosphere despite the bold combination of warm colors, red and yellow.

It has a wonderful fire pattern in the traditional Noborigama Youhen style.
Moriyasu Masamune - Bizen Guinomi
11,000 YENSold out
size : W7.4cm×7.1cm×H5.1cmThis Guinomi was fired during the final years of Moriyasu Masamune's life.
As a master deeply versed in classical ceramics—especially Old Bizen—this piece reflects his unique ability to interpret and incorporate traditional aesthetics into contemporary work.
It features a slightly low-profile, tea bowl–inspired form, a design often seen in his Guinomi.
The piece combines the powerful, fluid energy of his wheel work with practical ease of use and handling.
It also showcases a unique fire pattern that combines both Goma and Hidasuki.
The wide Hidasuki patterns were created by gas generated during the firing of straw inside a saggar, while the dotted Goma effects were guided through the saggar’s vent holes by natural ash glaze.
These two distinct effects beautifully intersect across the clay surface.
The Hidasuki pattern inside the Guinomi is especially remarkable, displaying a soft reddish tone with a refined sheen.
Although it is a previously owned piece, it remains in excellent condition, with no signs of use or damage.

The characteristic of Nakamura Clan is the red clay color.
However, this work is burned in a fiery flame until it loses its red clay color.
The melted ash has solidified and changed like a black stone.
A little red clay color is left inside, despite the fierce flames.
I am impressed by the power of his clay.
