Tatsuzo Shimaoka Signed Japanese Mingei Pottery Glazed Rope Inlay Vase with Box
About the Item
A wonderfully designed and gorgeously colored coveted square Mingei vase by Japanese National Treasure pottery master Tatsuzo Shimaoka. This work displays his famous Jomon Zogan rope inlay design and hand-painted decoration. The rich, sumptuous glaze radiates in the light.
The vase is signed by Shimaoka with his traditional "Ta" signature/mark on the base and also comes with a signed and sealed original box and paper profile/ biography of the artist (in Japanese).
The work is exquisite in every way and has a wonderful feel and heft to it.
Shimaoka, who started as an apprentice to famed Japanese potter Shoji Hamada in 1946 before opening his own studio, has exhibited worldwide including North America, Asia, and Europe. In 1996 he was bestowed the title of Japanese Living Treasure by the Japanese government. In 1999 he was awarded The Order of the Rising Sun.
His work can be found in many international museums and collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London among others.
Would be sure to stand out in any Japanese art or pottery collection or make for an eye-catching stand-alone accent piece in about any setting.
