This stunning Bizen ceramic vase by Manabu Sakakibara from the 1950s exudes pure, timeless elegance.
Dimensions: height 25 cm, diameter 23 cm. In perfect condition and signed by the artist: Manabu Sakakibara.
The texture is rich and dynamic, with a subtly rough surface enhanced by natural ash glazes and flame marks, characteristic of the authentic Bizen firing process. Deep earthy tones of warm reddish-brown and soft anthracite blend with organic shades of blue-gray and olive green, creating a vibrant and unique interplay of colors. Small inclusions and slight irregularities in the surface reflect the spontaneous interaction between fire, clay, and ash, giving this vase a characterful, almost meditative presence.
Thanks to its organic beauty and earthy hues, this vase is not only a decorative masterpiece but also perfectly suited as a flower vase.
The accompanying signed wooden tomobako and documentation make it a valuable collectors piece for enthusiasts of Japanese ceramics and craftsmanship.
