Vase-Jar / Ash-Glazed / Seto / Suzuki Seisei
Ash-Glazed Vase by Suzuki Seisei
Suzuki Seisei(1914-1990) was a legendary Seto potter and teacher of many, in Kuroda Ryoji's 1984 Shino book he wrote of Suzuki, "Seisei Suzuki could be considered the best of the potters from Seto. He does not limit himself to only Shino ware; rather, his interests and great energy cover a wide range of techniques. His style is magnanimous." The splash ash-glazing over the shibui rusty-toned body here surely points to that. In perfect condition with a signed box, stamped on base, 21cm.tall.
