Member of the Japan Kogei Association. Born in Arita, Saga Prefecture in 1941. Built a kiln in Sakura City, Chiba Prefecture in 1973. In 1978, studied under Living National Treasure Koichi Tamura and began research on Hokosai Somen Saishiki (a type of porcelain dyeing and coloring). This work was purchased at the teacher's exhibition in a department store in Tokyo. I am truly impressed by the passion of the teacher, who pursues the technically difficult and economically inefficient technique of Hokosai Saimoji. I bought it to support him, but I am reluctantly putting it up for sale due to my end-of-life preparations. The size is W26.0cm, D26.0cm, H22.5cm. There is no box, so I will use protective materials to avoid any problems during transportation.
