Yoshida Jo Bronze Single Flower Vase with Lid, Small A

Takeshi Yoshida is a potter who creates his works in Mashiko Town, Haga District, Tochigi Prefecture, a town famous for its pottery.

Mr. Yoshida primarily creates two series: "Bronze," which has a texture reminiscent of excavated artifacts, and "Hakudeisai" (white mud glaze), which evokes the walls of ancient ruins.
In recent years, he has also been producing rare "Akasai" (red glaze) pieces and a growing number of series with highly intricate sculptural elements.

Many of his works clearly demonstrate his dedication to color and texture, and their unique, artifact-like appearance is distinctive.
This time, we also have original ceramic works such as masks and candlesticks.

On the other hand, many of his vessels are lightweight, making them perfect for everyday use.

*Due to being handmade, there may be individual differences in size, color, pattern, and weight.
Additionally, there may be crack-like marks on the bottom or inside the foot ring of the vessel,
but these are superficial kiln cracks resulting from the firing process and do not affect usability.
Please be aware of this in advance.
