The surface is scarred and streaked like the lunar surface, exposed to the universe for all of time. It is 12.5 cm (5 inches) diameter, 40 cm (16 inches) tall and in excellent condition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTeramoto Mamoru (1949-present) born in Kanagawa prefecture, initially worked at the Kasama Kobayashi Research Facility after graduating the Tokyo Craft Design Institute. Later he apprenticed under the instruction of both Matsumoto Saichi of Kutani, and Miura Isamu. He established his own kiln in 1976 in Kasama. His works have been displayed and prized at the Nihon Dento Kogeiten (National Traditional Crafts Exhibition), Nihon Togei Ten (National Ceramics Exhibition) as well as the Shinsaku Ten (New Crafts Exhibition). For more information on this artist see the Catalog from the Nancy Fitz-Gerald Collection.   Although Kasama has a long history as a pottery center, when Teramoto established himself there, not many old kilns existed. When asked why he chose the locale, “I thought that would free me from any fixed format and allow me to create freely.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teramoto Mamoru","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50882308997367,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/7472\/3063\/files\/2026-06-0615.36.51.jpg?v=1782178767","url":"https:\/\/kuramonzen.com\/ja\/products\/teramoto-mamoru-tall-vase-%e3%83%bc%e5%af%ba%e6%9c%ac-%e5%ae%88-%e8%8c%9c%e5%bd%a9-%e8%b1%a1%e5%b5%8c-%e8%8a%b1%e7%94%9f","provider":"Kura Monzen Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
