Bizen Bowl-Kensui by Kaneshige Michiaki

The firing on this Bizen bowl is outstanding! It is quintessential Michiaki Kaneshige(1934-1995) for its simple, yet deep form, and of course the goma-sesame on the front, how it accumulated inside, and the delightful shiso-purple tones, also very characteristic of the Kaneshige kiln. This bowl can also easily be used as a kensui-water waste jar for a Way of Tea Gathering. In perfect condition with a signed box, 8cm.tallx17,stamped on base.
