About the Item
A quite striking Japanese Shigaraki Ware pottery vase featuring a very abstract, multi-layered ash glazed texture.
Shigaraki Ware pottery comes from Shiga Prefecture, Japan. The kiln there is one of six ancient kilns in Japan (along with Echizen ware, Seto ware, Bizen ware, Tamba (Tanba) ware, and Tokoname ware).
The work is signed faintly with the maker's incised signature/pottery mark on the base.
This particular work also encompasses the Japanese Wabi-Sabi aesthetic - the appreciation of beauty that is imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete in nature and embraces the principles of asymmetry, roughness, simplicity, economy, austerity, modesty, intimacy, and the appreciation of both natural objects and the forces of nature upon them.
Would be a great addition to any Japanese or Asian pottery/ceramics collection or make for an eye catching stand alone accent piece in about any setting.

Located in Atlanta, GA
A tall ceramic vase made in the tradition of Shigaraki ware by Japanese potter Takahashi Shunsai (1927-2011), the fourth heir of the famed Rakusai lineage of potters.
