Description from the seller
An extraordinary and extremely rare opportunity for true connoisseurs and aesthetes of Japanese ceramics. This exclusive set unites in a single stylistic dialogue the 6 Great Historic Kilns of Japan, with works created directly by the greatest masters of Nippon ceramic art: as many as 5 authors out of 6 hold the title of Living National Treasure.
The Excellence of the Masters:
A symphony of legendary signatures that have shaped the history of art ceramics:
Karatsu: Nakazato Tarouemon
Hagi: Sakata Deika
Bizen: Nanzan Kiln
Kyo-yaki: Kiyomizu Rokubei
Shigaraki: Takahashi Rakusai
Mino: Kato Koubei
A Journey Through the 6 Ancient Kilns:
Each guinomi represents the pure essence of its territory, offering a magnificent contrast of glazes, textures, clays and firing techniques.
Paulownia wooden box bearing the signatures and autographs (Hanko) seals of all 6 masters. An archival detail of invaluable historical and commercial value.
Original Shiori: Complete information brochure with photos and detailed descriptions of the individual works.
Finding individual works by these masters is already a rare event; obtaining a coordinated set born of a unique collaboration, custodian of the tradition of the 6 historic kilns and complete with the original multi-signed box, makes this object a unique piece with very strong artistic value.
