Description from the seller
A gourd-shaped vase by Japanese ceramic artist Suiko Nakamura. The gourd shape, elegantly named "One Gourd of Life," comes with a calligraphic inscription on the original box.
Hand-thrown on a potter's wheel, the yellow-green kiln-transformed glaze flows naturally, with fine crackles covering the surface, giving it a rustic and lively feel. The vase bears the artist's seal on the side and comes with the original wooden box.
【Dimensions】Mouth diameter approx. 3cm, height approx. 22cm, weight approx. 445g
【Condition】Almost brand new overall, no chips or cracks. Only minor signs of wiping on the bottom.
Suiko Nakamura was a modern Japanese ceramic artist specializing in these biomorphic gourd-shaped, kiln-transformed glaze vase types. The unique shape and rich glaze layers make them suitable for Japanese tea room flower arrangements and display on antique shelves, combining practicality and collectible value.
