This is a piece by Christiane Perrochon. I purchased it about 24.5 years ago at a Yoko Arimoto exhibition. I believe it is a perfect piece, with its color, shape, and dignified presence. The undulation of the pale cherry blossom pink to pink glaze is beautiful, and it's a "vessel with a view" that organizes the space just by placing it. With a length of 30.5cm, and this depth, it is a "vessel," yet it has a presence that stands as a single form when placed on a table. While oval dishes of the same type, around 20cm, are occasionally seen, this length (30.5cm) with "this much depth" is rare, and hard to come by. It is a work with a gentle, generous, and embracing feel of the hand's undulation. Of course, it can be used as a serving dish for food, but I think it is also a piece that is worth seeing from a collector's perspective, and as a table centerpiece. It is one of the special pieces in my collection. Please understand that the shades and flow of the glaze are unique to Perrochon's handiwork. I personally love the visual of the pink glaze gradation on the back, it's so cute and beautiful that I can't help but stare at it (photo 9). You can see various expressions in the way the pink glaze covers the entire vessel, and it makes me smile at the luxurious visual. Length: 30.5cm / Width: 17.5cm Height: Approximately 7cm in the center / Approximately 9.5cm at the maximum on the left and right It is a very beautiful item in good condition, as it has been stored wrapped in cushioning material. It can be used for various purposes such as salads, pasta for large gatherings, roasted vegetables, and fruits. It is an early work from 24.5 years ago. It is a piece from the best era, where the hands and breath of a single artist are directly reflected in the form. Items from an era where you can feel the soft undulation and the movement of the human hand are very rare nowadays. I am still hesitant to put this piece up for sale. As it is not an urgent listing, I will take my time and look forward to a careful connection. I would be happy if someone who appreciates the quality of this vessel would welcome it. Please note that items other than the vessel are not included.
