【M-073】 Banko Ware, Made by Sonoyama, Flower Vessel (Vase) — An exquisite work with refined form and elegance — This is a flower vessel with an extremely refined form, made by Sonoyama, a master of Banko ware. The pale, unglazed clay is layered with deep, clear gos (cobalt blue), and the patterns drawn without hesitation with each brushstroke embody both tranquility and splendor. The fine crackling that covers the entire body is a high-quality landscape created by the passage of time, and the vessel itself has a presence that seems to tell the "history of its growth." When light hits it, the lines of the crackling faintly appear, and the expression of the vessel changes as if it were breathing. In addition to its practicality as a flower vessel, it is a work that has the power to quietly elevate the quality of a space just by its presence. ■Size Height: Approximately 20cm Maximum width: Approximately 15cm Inner diameter of the mouth: Approximately 2cm ■Condition No chips or cracks are found. The crackling and slight age-related discoloration that have occurred over time further enhance the aesthetic of the work. Overall, it is in very good condition. #Itchy'sAntiques #Antiques #BankoWare #FlowerVessel #SonoyamaKishi #Vase #FlowerContainer #FlowerArrangement #FlowerInlet #GosPattern Type...Pottery
