Yunomi / Bizen / Bizen / Kakumi Seiho
Bizen 'Seasons' Meoto-Yunomi Pair by Kakumi Seiho
Kakumi Seiho(b.1921) is one of the last remaining veteran-greats of Bizen; he began his Bizen journey in 1949 and in 1980 was designated an Okayama Prefectural Intangible Cultural Property. This shibui 'his and hers' yunomi set has the kanji for each of the four seasons on the sides, quite rare for Bizen. In perfect condition with a single signed box, a bit of heft to each, the taller at 8.2 and the other at 7.8; both signed on the base.
