Bowl / Celadon / Kyoto / Furukawa Toshio
Crackled Celadon Bowl by Furukawa Toshio
In the 1993 exhibition and catalog of 'Modern Japanese Ceramics in American Collections' held at the Japan Society in New York was shown a very similar crackled celadon bowl by Furukawa Toshio(b.1949, in the catalog no.60, photo shown here). The thickly crackled layers of celadon are a wonder to gaze upon and for decades now Furukawa--based in Kyoto--has created celadon of the first order; he established his own kiln in 1975. Larger in life then the photos hint at, in perfect condition with a signed box, 11.2cm.tallx36.3, stamped on base.
