A Japanese ceramic vase with deep blue (ruri) glaze, featuring expressive gold-toned abstract decoration. The surface shows a rich contrast between the intense cobalt-blue glaze and the textured, flowing motifs, giving the piece a strong sculptural presence. The form is well-balanced with a slightly tapered neck, suitable both as a decorative object and as a flower vase. This work is accompanied by its original tomobako (signed wooden box), confirming it as an authentic piece by the artist. A refined example of Japanese modern studio ceramics from the 1970s–1980s, combining traditional glazing techniques with a contemporary aesthetic. Condition Good condition. No visible cracks or repairs. Minor signs of age may be present, consistent with its period.
