Yokayama Shin'ichi Guinomi 80 ml

Stoneware

This distinctive Guinomi by Yokoyama Shin’ichi captivates with its compact, slightly asymmetrical form and vibrant surface design. Particularly striking is the large, oval section in warm brown and earthy tones, which stands out clearly from the light gray surface marked by natural ash deposits. This appealing contrast is reminiscent of the traditional Botamochi technique of Bizen ware, in which specific areas are deliberately protected from ash deposits during firing. Small dark firing marks, fine irregularities, and the gently curved rim give the Guinomi a natural, primal aura. 

This piece comes in a signed tomobako.
