Item Description:
新開寛山 Shinkai Kanzan(1912– ) — Garasu-Saiyū Kabin (Glass-Enamel Glazed Flower Vase), Kyo-yaki
A striking and substantial flower vase in Kyo-yaki (Kyoto ware), executed in the distinctive garasu-saiyū (glass-enamel glaze) technique by Shinkai Kanzan — one of the most celebrated and decorated ceramic artists of twentieth-century Kyoto, winner of the Minister of Education Award at the Japan Fine Arts Exhibition (Nitten) and the Japan Art Academy Prize (Nihon Geijutsuin-shō).
Standing 35 cm tall with a generous body diameter of 21 cm, this vase commands immediate attention.
The garasu-saiyū technique, for which Shinkai is particularly renowned, involves the application of a glass-based glaze that fuses in the kiln to produce a uniquely lustrous, semi-translucent surface — simultaneously evoking the depth of molten glass and the warmth of fired clay.
The interplay of light across the glazed surface creates shifting tones and textures that bring the piece to life from every angle.
The vase is signed (zaimei) and comes with its original wooden storage box (tomobako).
Shinkai's creative vocabulary — shaped by his training under the 5th-generation Kiyomizu Rokubei and his deep study of classical Kyo-yaki — placed him among the foremost innovators of contemporary Japanese ceramics.
His works are characterised by an extraordinary technical mastery combined with a thoroughly personal aesthetic sensibility.

Artist Profile
新開寛山 Shinkai Kanzan (1912– ) was born in Kyoto. His real name was Kunitaro. The son and nephew of artists in the Seifū Yohei lineage, he was immersed in the ceramic arts from childhood. He trained under the 5th-generation Kiyomizu Rokubei from 1932, and graduated from the Kyoto Municipal School of Arts and Crafts. He made his debut at the Imperial Fine Arts Exhibition (Teiten) in 1930, and thereafter established himself as a leading figure in the postwar Japanese craft world through consistent participation in the Japan Fine Arts Exhibition (Nitten). He received the Minister of Education Award at the reorganised 6th Nitten (1974) for his work Gunkei ("Flock Landscape"), and the Japan Art Academy Prize (1980) for Gencho ("The Swallow"). He also received the Order of the Rising Sun, Fourth Class (1984) and the Kyoto Prefecture Special Cultural Achievement Award (1989). His distinctive body of work — deploying iron glaze, nail-carved decoration (kugi-bori), ceramic sculpture (tōchō), inlay (zōgan), and the garasu-saiyū glass-enamel technique — established him as one of the most original and technically versatile ceramicists of his generation.
