Description： An elegant white-glazed porcelain vase by renowned Kyoto ceramic artist Hikaru Yamada (山田光). Featuring a perfectly balanced spherical form with a narrow neck, this vase embodies the minimalist aesthetics of modern Japanese studio pottery. The smooth matte white glaze highlights the purity of the silhouette, creating a quiet yet sophisticated presence suitable for both contemporary and traditional interiors. Born in Gifu in 1924, Yamada graduated from the Kyoto Municipal School of Fine Arts and became one of Japan's leading postwar ceramic artists. His works have been exhibited at the Nitten Exhibition, the Japan Contemporary Crafts Exhibition, and the International Ceramic Exhibition in Prague, receiving recognition from the Japan Ceramic Society. This refined vase is an excellent example of his pursuit of simplicity, balance, and timeless elegance, making it ideal for ikebana or as a standalone sculptural object. NOTICE
