A striking tenmoku porcelain vase titled "Hakko" (White Light) by Shumei Fujii — a master of Arita porcelain whose works in white porcelain and contemporary forms have been celebrated through repeated selection at the Nitten Exhibition, the most prestigious art exhibition in Japan. This cylindrical vessel showcases the dramatic interplay of two of the most coveted ceramic traditions in Japan: the deep, lustrous black of tenmoku iron glaze and luminous white streaks that flow vertically across the surface like cascading light. Fired at high temperature in the Shumei Kiln in Arita, the glaze develops with a quiet, jewel-like depth — neither pure black nor matte, but a darkly reflective surface punctuated by passages of crystalline white that shift in the light. Refined, architectural, and quietly powerful, this is Fujii's signature dialogue between classical Chinese tenmoku tradition and contemporary Japanese sensibility. Accompanied by the original signed wooden tomobako with the artist's seal. 【Artist Profile】 Shumei Fujii (1936-2017), an Arita-based porcelain master, dedicated his career to refining both classical white porcelain and contemporary glaze expression. A repeated exhibitor at the Nitten Exhibition, Fujii's works are recognized for their precise, modern forms and the technical mastery of his Shumei Kiln. Works by Shumei Fujii are no longer in production. This is a finite body of work. 【Condition】 Excellent. Minor signs of age commensurate with careful storage.
