Sold out

size : W7.6cm×5.6cm×H5.4cm

Hikaru Shimamura is a leading figure in the contemporary Bizen ware of the Saikumono genre.
The Saikumono requires a wealth of knowledge and a huge amount of time to produce, and can hardly be described as efficient.
For this reason, there are fewer potters who try their hand at The Saikumono today.
He revolutionised the genre.
Instead of designing imaginary animals with precision, he recreated common objects and animals around us in stylish depictions.
Suiteki are tools used to hold water during calligraphy.
Suiteki were often made in the past, but no one makes them anymore today.
The chimneys, firewood inserts, and other features of the Noborigama kiln's shape are well captured.
