Jar / Karatsu Nanban / Nakazato Takashi
Karatsu-Nanban Henko-Jar by Nakazato Takashi
This very-very fine example of Nakazato Takashi's Karatsu-Nanban was made in four separate 'parts' and attached to make a tawara-rice bale form. It has a very refined natural ash-glazing--only Nakazato's kiln 'gets it,' small firing chip on front, barely noticeable and part of the firing/darker in person, has 'attitude' in it leaning form, and is great alone or with flowers, signed box and is 31cm.tall, 22.5cm.across and 21cm.deep. It dates to 1985, museum quality; more about Nakazato on e-yakimono.net or in our archives.
