Shigaraki ware, a masterpiece of natural ash glaze, by Seiemon Tani, tea ceremony utensil, Iga-style double-eared mizusashi (water container), with a lacquered lid, with a wooden box. The ultimate beauty of the natural ash glaze and the reduction kiln transformation bursts forth in this double-eared vase. The double-eared waist, with a linear carving approximately 80mm in width, leads to a more robust body with a diameter of 90mm, emphasizing a single, bold, and uninhibited circular chamfer. The body is adorned with powerful linear carvings resembling chrysanthemum patterns, and the ears on both sides are beautifully shaped while also being practical, making it a tea ceremony utensil that combines function and beauty. The body is supported by a sturdy, thick waist with a sense of dynamic beauty, and the front of the waist is covered with the ultimate natural ash glaze beauty, evoking the timeless flow of time and space. The lid, perfectly integrated with the mizusashi body through firing, is also fired with the "ultimate kiln transformation beauty," leading to a simple surface that represents the colors of the reduction flame's cycle, giving a sense of infinite mystery and sublimity, and adding a simple yet heartwarming and profound texture. The expression created by the thick clay and the flow of natural glaze from firing is truly a unique flavor, with the beauty of wabi-sabi (rustic simplicity) floating within the roughness. Please enjoy the ultimate natural ash glaze beauty that evokes the timeless flow of time and space. The lacquered lid is also included, and the overall balance is excellent.
