Modern Japanese Ceramics
sold, thank you One of three sumptuous chawan in vibrant red, beautifully crafted on the potters wheel by Masatomo Toi complete with signed wooden box. It has a very thin lip, which may fool the viewer into thinking it is light, however it has a respectable weight, as the bowl is thicker at the bottom to both contain the heat and protect the hands of the holder from the boiling tea contained within. A single thumbprint in platinum marks the series. The unglazed base is also coated in platinum. In fact it has...

It has a very thin lip, which may fool the viewer into thinking it is light, however it has a respectable weight, as the bowl is thicker at the bottom to both contain the heat and protect the hands of the holder from the boiling tea con...

Modern Japanese Ceramics
sold, thank you This is the earliest piece in our current exhibition highlighting the work of Masatomo Toi. A bit more aggressive and grungy than the growingly refined works he is creating today. This is like studded leather over a sex pistols T-shirt, and reflects the angst and aggressiveness of the artist when we first met him as a student at the ceramics research facility in Gifu. It is roughly 25 cm (10 inches) tall and in perfect condition. There is a rough edge to one of the pools of glaze at the foot,...
