AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A sculptural Japanese stoneware vessel by Tsukamoto Haruhiko, featuring a rich Oribe glaze with deep green tones and contrasting dark areas.

The work is characterised by its bold, angular form and expressive surface, where thick glaze pools, flowing iron accents, and natural kiln effects create a strong sense of movement and depth. Each angle reveals a different balance of texture and colour, giving the piece a distinctly sculptural presence rather than a purely functional form.

This piece comes with the original signed wooden box (tomobako) and cloth, confirming it as the artist’s work.

A compelling example of contemporary Japanese pottery that bridges traditional Oribe aesthetics with a modern, expressive approach.

Condition:
Good. No cracks or repairs. Natural glaze variations, kiln marks, and crazing are consistent with the artist’s technique and firing process.

Shipping:
Carefully packed and shipped from Japan with tracking.
