A grand blast of green ash grows gray as it congeals and meanders into rivulets flowing into the embers on this beautifully potted and deceptively light vessel by Kishino Kan enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Iga Yakishime Hana-ire. It is 24.5 cm (just under 10 inches) tall and in excellent condition.
Kishino Kan was born in Kyoto in 1975, and after graduating art school apprenticed under Fukumori Masatake at the Doraku Kiln in Mie in 1994. He established his own kiln in 2004 in Iga city. He focuses on the intimacy of private exhibitions as his venue of choice.
