Haiyūsai Pottery Glass Set by Ikai Yūichi

Description

Kyoto native Ikai Yūichi has trained under the late Shimizu Uichi (1926-2004) who, in 1985, was awarded the title of Living National Treasure for his outstanding work in ceramic making. And it is from his sensei that Ikai learned the secrets to coaxing subtle hues and fluid effects from the oldest and most rudimentary of all glazes - hai, or ash.

These versatile pottery glasses by Ikai Yūichi are ash glazed and accented with brush details applied in quick, energetic strokes.  For beer, iced tea or green tea.

A wooden presentation box will be custom made to order and signed by the artist.  Delivery time for this item is 2 weeks.
