Kenji Takenaka - Bizen Oribe Cup
5,500 YEN
size : W8.3cm×8.2cm×H7.2cmKenji Takenaka entered the world of ceramics after working in jewelry design and later studied under Jun Isezaki. This is a Bizen Oribe Cup by the artist.
As the name *Bizen Oribe* suggests, the work combines Bizen clay with Oribe glaze, bringing out the distinctive appeal of both traditions.
In the exposed areas of the Bizen clay body, various mineral components within the clay have emerged as black and silvery particles. These give off a subdued metallic glimmer against the warm, ochre-toned surface, creating an intriguing accent.
The Oribe glaze has been poured dynamically across the vessel. Taking advantage of the glaze’s natural translucency, Takenaka allows the wheel marks on the body to create beautiful variations in depth and color.
Inside the cup and around the lower body, the glaze has pooled more thickly and developed a deep tone reminiscent of obsidian. This is another striking surface effect that makes full use of the flowing character of the Oribe glaze.
Yuho Kaneshige - Imbe Hidasuki Mukoduke
16,500 YEN
size : W14.0cm×10.3cm×H12.4cmYuho Kaneshige, though a member of the Kaneshige lineage, has always continued to question himself and to create as an individual ceramic artist.
This is a somewhat earlier Imbe Hidasuki handled Mukozuke by Yuho Kaneshige.
It was fired in the electric kiln at Imbe designed by Sozan Kaneshige, and is said to have been made around 2002 as a culmination of his work in tableware.
Each piece is crafted with extraordinary care and precision, resulting in a level of detail that seems to go beyond the category of functional tableware and enter the realm of fine artistry.
As if competing in the art of delicate workmanship, the bifurcated handle is beautiful in itself, but above all, the proportions are masterfully calculated, with the slenderness of the handle and the balance in scale with the footed body being especially remarkable.
The delicate Hidasuki achieved with high-quality clay is also superb, and because this is Hidasuki without natural ash glaze, the sharply defined lines made possible by slab construction can be fully appreciated.
The body is made somewhat deep, making it suitable even for dishes with sauces or broth, while the delicate Hidasuki and elegant form greatly enhance the appeal of whatever food is served in it.
Originally, this work was made as part of a set of eight pieces, but it is now being offered individually, and a new wooden box can be made for it.
A wooden box for storing multiple pieces can also be prepared, so please feel free to inquire if you are considering purchasing more than one.
A work of the same form is currently on display in the exhibition “Yuho Kaneshige: The Kotodama of Clay,” held at the Mashiko Museum of Ceramic Art from March 8 to May 17, 2026.
Koichiro Isezaki - Bizen Yunomi
13,200 YENSold out
size : W8.6cm×8.5cm×H8.5cmKoichiro Isezaki, the eldest son of Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki, has brought a fresh new spirit to the world of Bizen ware with his exceptional sense of design and remarkable skill in forming clay.
This is a newly fired Bizen Yunomi from his latest kiln firing, unloaded from the kiln in July 2026.
While making full use of the distinctive qualities of Bizen clay, Koichiro skillfully incorporates elements from wood carving—one of the artistic traditions that form part of his roots—creating a highly individual piece that is immediately recognizable as his work.
This firing took place in the height of summer. The prolonged rainy season brought considerable humidity, which affected the atmosphere inside the anagama kiln. As a result, the surface displays softly emerging, delicate reddish tones together with particularly intense Kase-Goma, producing the distinctive texture often referred to as a “melon skin.”
Although the Yunomi has a simple cylindrical form, the design of the lower body gives it an unusual character. A subtle step is formed around the waist, while the base curves gently into a rounded bottom, creating an intriguing and distinctive silhouette.
The clean, crisp coloration characteristic of anagama firing blends beautifully with the simple yet refined design, resulting in a work that feels completely at home even in a contemporary living space.
The Yunomi comes with a paulownia wooden box, making it an excellent choice as a gift or commemorative piece.
Toru Ichikawa - Kittate VANISHING POINT
26,840 YENSold out
size : glass W7.0cm×7.0cm×H8.5cm
dish W10.3cm×10.2cm×H1.4cmToru Ichikawa studied under Ryuichi Kakurezaki and made a striking debut of his own. This is a slightly earlier work by the artist, titled *Kiridate VANISHING POINT*.
Characteristic of Ichikawa, who gives form to an endless stream of ideas through the extraordinary material of clay, this is an unconventional and highly original work filled with his distinctive imagination.
The piece is titled *VANISHING POINT*, evoking a world in which Ichikawa’s imagination seems to converge and disappear into the distance.
Known for his extraordinary ability to manipulate the texture of glazes and create an almost limitless variety of surfaces, Ichikawa has applied three different glazes, each with its own color and texture, across the work in a dynamic and unrestricted manner.
The pink surface is finished with an iridescent glaze reminiscent of luster decoration, while the platinum decoration moves freely across the surface like action painting. On the remaining plane—the interior—Ichikawa creates a quiet and serene world in ice white.
The work was created as a Kiridate together with a matching saucer, allowing it to be used freely either as tableware or as a drinking vessel. It is a particularly luxurious piece that invites a wide range of uses.
Although this is an earlier work, it has never been used.
Koichiro Isezaki - Bizen Yunomi
13,200 YEN
size : W8.5cm×8.3cm×H8.3cmBorn as the eldest son of Living National Treasure Jun Isezaki, Koichiro Isezaki brings a fresh spirit to the world of Bizen ware through his exceptional sense of design and remarkable skill in forming clay. This is a newly fired Bizen Yunomi by the artist.
Fresh from the kiln in July 2026, it is one of his latest works.
While making full use of the distinctive qualities of Bizen clay, Isezaki skillfully incorporates elements drawn from wood carving, one of the roots of his artistic practice, creating a unique work that is immediately recognizable as his own.
This firing took place in the height of summer, and the humidity brought by prolonged rainfall affected the conditions inside the Anagama kiln. As a result, delicate, softly emerging scarlet tones developed across the surface, together with Kase-Goma around the rim.
Although the overall form is a simple cylindrical Yunomi, the design below the waist is particularly distinctive. A subtle step has been formed around the lower body, while the base itself is gently rounded, creating an intriguing silhouette.
The clean and refreshing coloring characteristic of Anagama firing harmonizes beautifully with the simple yet sophisticated design. The result is a work that fits naturally into contemporary living spaces while retaining the distinctive character of Bizen ware.
The Yunomi comes with a Paulownia wood box, making it an excellent choice as a gift or commemorative piece.
Due to an issue with our photography equipment, the images appear slightly darker than the work does in person. If you would like to see photographs taken with an iPhone under natural lighting conditions, please feel free to contact us.

Fresh from the kiln in July 2026, it is one of his latest works.
While making full use of the distinctive qualities of Bizen clay, Isezaki skillfully incorporates elements drawn from wood carving, one of the roots of his artistic practice, creating a unique work that is immediately recognizable as his own.
The Yunomi was likely positioned near one of the side-stoking openings of the Anagama kiln, resulting in traces of Hai-kaburi among its kiln effects. Brown Yohen tones and metallic-colored Hidasuki also appear across the surface, giving the piece a distinctly unusual character.
Although the overall form is a simple cylindrical Yunomi, the design below the waist is particularly distinctive. A subtle step has been formed around the lower body, while the base itself is gently rounded, creating an intriguing silhouette.
The clean and restrained coloring characteristic of Anagama firing harmonizes beautifully with the simple yet sophisticated design. The result is a work that fits naturally into contemporary living spaces while retaining the distinctive character of Bizen ware.

Jun Isezaki - Bizen Yunomi
44,000 YEN
size : W7.4cm×7.2cm×H9.2cmThis is a newly fired Bizen Yunomi by Jun Isezaki, Living National Treasure and a leading figure in the world of Bizen ware, whose creativity continues to flourish without ever fading.
It is one of his latest works, freshly fired in February 2026.
Fired for about ten days in a semi-underground anagama kiln, this piece displays a firing rich in expressions that are truly representative of Isezaki Bizen, including Goma, Hidasuki, Ito-Goma, and gradations of hiro and amber tones.
Rice straw was arranged diagonally across the piece in a kesa-gake manner, and the Hidasuki circling all the way around the vessel is so captivating that one finds oneself unconsciously tracing the flow of the straw with the eyes.
As the straw burned during firing, it fused with the natural ash glaze and transformed into the effect known as Ito-Goma, while still retaining the shape of the straw itself.
Inside the vessel, Goma carried by the hot air of the anagama has settled in extremely fine particles, like a dusting of snow.
Although it is inscribed as a Yunomi, it can of course also be enjoyed as a beer mug.

Jun Isezaki - Bizen Rock glass
44,000 YENSold out
size : W9.5cm×8.7cm×H7.6cmDrawing a wealth of inspiration from the natural environment of his beloved home of Bizen, Jun Isezaki brought a new spirit to the tradition of Bizen ware. This is a newly released Bizen Rock Cup by the artist.
Fired in February 2026, it is a work from the final period of his career.
The cup was fired for approximately ten days in a semi-underground Anagama kiln. Its surface displays many of the kiln effects representative of Isezaki’s Bizen ware, including Goma, Hidasuki, fine thread-like Goma, and a gradation between white clay and vivid scarlet tones.
The work was formed from a somewhat coarse, sandy clay. On the interior, where the flames did not strike directly, a fresh orange color has developed.
Rice straw was wrapped diagonally around the vessel before firing, creating a Hidasuki pattern that circles the entire cup. The flowing movement of this pattern makes the work enjoyable to view from every angle.
During firing, the straw also fused with natural ash glaze carried by the flames, producing a variety of colors and textures that change from one area of the surface to another.
Youtaro Isezaki - Hibi 2022 Katakuchi
35,200 YEN
size : W11.5cm×9.0cm×H10.3cm 300ccBorn into a distinguished Bizen ware family as the eldest son of Shin Isezaki, Yotaro Isezaki continues to create works in a new style unconstrained by conventional ideas. This is his *Hibi 2022* Katakuchi.
Incorporating AI-generated imagery and transfer-printing techniques, Isezaki brings a contemporary sensibility to ceramics while pursuing a distinctive form of expression.
As suggested by the title *Hibi 2022*, images taken from the camera roll of his own iPhone are scattered across the entire surface of the vessel using ceramic transfer paper, creating an effect reminiscent of a photographic collage.
The body is made from Isezaki’s original clay blend combining porcelain clay with Mogusa clay. The surface is then prepared with clay slips and glaze, allowing the vessel itself to function as a kind of canvas.
The texture of this clay canvas, together with the effects of the glaze, subtly disrupts the outlines of the transferred images. This creates a distinctive faded and weathered appearance, as though the vessel had been used and aged over many years.
The body has a relatively orthodox cup-like form, fitted with a suzume-guchi spout. Despite its visually striking appearance, the Katakuchi has been carefully designed for practical and comfortable use.
Built upon the form of a traditional sake vessel while layering contemporary elements such as AI, image transfer, and smartphone technology, this work presents a new mode of ceramic expression unique to Yotaro Isezaki.
