Beautiful Porcelain vase.

Good condition

Item Description:
This exquisite piece is a testament to the exceptional skill and artistry of Ken Shomura, a master craftsman from Arita, Saga Prefecture, born in 1949. Known for his unique glazes, which are meticulously concocted from earthy materials, Shomura's works are celebrated for their indigo and crimson dyeing techniques that radiate softness and warmth. In 2017, he was honored with the title of "Modern Master Craftsman" by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare, and has had the prestigious privilege of his works being featured in the Kyushu Ceramic Museum's exhibition tracking the legacy of the Arita Banko Kiln from the Meiji era to the present Heisei era. His longstanding contributions to the craft were further acknowledged in 2019 when he received the Yellow Ribbon Medal.

The Smithsonian Institution's Sackler National Museum in Washington, D.C., was graced with a donation of his work in 1995. In 2000, his ceramics were displayed at the "Saga Prefectural Ceramics Exhibition" in the British Museum in England, and in 2004, his work was showcased at the "German Arita Ceramics Exhibition" in Meissen, Berlin, and Düsseldorf, Germany.

Size:
Diameter: 34.2 cm
Height: 28.2 cm

Artist Profile:
Ken Shomura, a native of Arita Town in Saga Prefecture, has been instrumental in perpetuating and evolving the esteemed tradition of Japanese ceramics. His glazes, mixed from various soil-based components, achieve an almost poetic expression in their hues and textures, inviting an emotional response from the viewer. His works, particularly those in indigo and crimson, are revered for their embodiment of both gentleness and warmth. Shomura's dedication to his craft over the decades has earned him high honors and the recognition of a "Modern Master Craftsman," a true reflection of his standing in the contemporary arts scene.
