Through constant experimentation, Kamada Kōji has elevated tenmoku, a technique originating in China during the Song dynasty, to an even higher level of refinement with the introduction of several signature glazes, each one adding another facet to the incredible diversity of his art.

This striking sake cup is done in Mr. Kamada's signature ginsho tenmoku.  The high iron content in the glaze gives the cup a distinctive brushed metal-like finish with subtle hints of cobalt blue.  The golden rim and low-relief slip lines (tsuisen) add an extra degree of reserved opulence.

A gem for any saké vessel collection.

See Kamada Kōji's 40th Year Commemorative Exhibition for more works from his 2008 collection.
