Mashiko ware vase by Mitsuru Kimura - Japan - 20th century

An elegant Mashiko ware vase by Mitsuru Kimura (木村充), beautifully crafted with a rich Shinsya (copper-red) glaze combined with flowing green and white tones. The natural interplay of glazes and the subtle texture of the clay create a dynamic yet serene presence, reflecting the essence of Japanese folk pottery aesthetics. Kimura, a contemporary potter of the Mashiko tradition, is known for his refined control of copper glaze—balancing depth, movement, and warmth. This piece, with its full rounded form and smooth foot, demonstrates both technical mastery and poetic restraint. It comes in its original signed wooden box (tomobako), making it ideal for collectors of modern Japanese ceramics. Condition: Good – No noticeable damage or stains on the main body. The box shows minor age-related wear. Shipping: From Japan with tracking. Securely packed for safe delivery worldwide. ※Important Information – Please Read Before Bidding※ Customs duties, VAT, and import clearance fees are not included in the shipping cost and are the responsibility of the buyer. These charges vary depending on your country’s import regulations and are beyond the seller’s control. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. All items are carefully packed and promptly shipped with tracking to ensure safe delivery. Please bid with confidence.
