A gosu (cobalt) glazed stoneware sake cup by mingei potter Kawai Toru.  He is the grandnephew of Kawai Kanjiro and the last to study under the legendary master.  Over the years, he has refined his own particular style of pottery  - one that emphasizes clean lines and complex geometric forms.  Upwardly twisting facets (mentori), swirling vortexes, and flared rims are the trademarks of his craft and show a level of technical skill unseen in the works of former mingei masters.

The cup comes with a signed wooden presentation box (ki-bako) made to order.
Delivery time for this item is 2 weeks.

See Kawai Toru's exhibition catalogue for more works from previous collections.
