TANI-SAN II

Traveling through the ether of the internet, I stumbled on a rather nice vase and thought it worth sharing. This vase is the epitome of medieval styling and showcases the classical firing that is Ko-Shigaraki . Obviously patterned after a historical archetype this hanaire by Tani Seiuemon is picture perfect with a wonderful green glass ash flow cascading down the face of the pot acting as a permanent reminder of the flame and the potter. This is a much better representation of the work of Tani Seiuemon than are the three kogo I posted recently!
