$800.00 An intriguing white tower by Kato Kiyoyuki enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Hakuho 83-4. It is quite large at 54 cm (21-1/4 inches) and is in excellent condition. Although the size would make one expect it to be heavy, it is incredibly light. Deceptive….Intriguing…It feels more like a sculpture than a vase, a hallmark of this artist.

The plate is 14 x 28 x 4 cm (5-1/2 x 11 x 1-1/2 inches)...

Ceramic sculpture of the white fox, messenger of Inari – the Shinto and Buddhist deity of harvest, rice and abundance.
The Inari fox (kitsune) is a benevolent animal, a sign of prosperity and wealth. This proximity to the kami Inari leads to the two figures being mixed and substituted in the imagination, with the animal becoming a fox-god. Inari’s fox is depicted holding a variety of objects in its mouth with different symbolic meaning: a wheat ear, a scroll, a ball or a key...

$450.00 Black Bizen Guinimo and Tokkuri by Oiwa Tomoyuki enclosed respectively in their original signed wooden boxes. There is a wonderful dialog between the two pieces, the bottle blackened with dark dry ash buffeting the surface, while over the same darkness has been blasted molten ash on the cup, flowing around and beading on one side. The juxtaposition between the liquidity and dryness of the two, same colored, ash effects is delightful...
