Modern Japanese Ceramics
sold, thank you An unusual lidded vessel in the shape of a clay pitcher beautifully patterned with natural ash glazes by Furutani Churoku I enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Shigaraki Shizen-Yu Dobin Hanaire.

Kyoto Ceramics and Fine Art
$1,125.00 The term “Raku” was once reserved for a style of pottery produced by a specific household in Kyoto that began over 450 years ago.

Today, we see that Raku has become a world-wide phenomena and the name is no longer reserved strictly for the Raku fami...
