Atsuya Hamada Studio Pottery Miniature Tenmoku Glazed Vase
About the Item
A very fine vintage handcrafted Studio Pottery miniature tenmoku glazed vase by renowned potter Atsuya Hamada (Japanese, 1932-1986) and made at the Leach Pottery in St Ives, Cornwall dating from around 1958.
Richard Batterham (British, 1936 – 2021) whose personal collection this delightful vase comes from was greatly influenced by the work of Atsuya Hamada, the son of Shoji Hamada, and who worked at the Leach Pottery from 1956. Hamada potted on a kick wheel which he had brought to the pottery from Japan and was operated by the potters feet.
This delightful miniature stoneware vase stands on a narrow flat unglazed foot with an unglazed lower edge and is of rounded bulbous shape with a narrow neck and fold back wide top rim. The vase is decorated in black and brown tenmoku glazes with abstract patterning to two sides and has an impressed Leach Pottery England mark to the lower edge.
Provenance: Acquired from the estate of Richard Batterham, who spent two years from 1957 as an apprentice working alongside Bernard Leach at the Leach Pottery and was greatly influenced by the work of Atsuya Hamada who started working at the pottery around the same time, the son of Shoji Hamada. He acquired a number of pieces directly from the artists he worked with and also through Hay Hill in London. Thence consigned by a gentleman owner and collector.

- Shoji Hamada Tenmoku Glaze and Kaki Trailing Vase and Original Signed Sealed BoxBy Shoji HamadaLocated in Studio City, CAAn exquisite, beautifully crafted Japanese pottery vase by master potter Shoji Hamada featuring Hamada's famous signature tenmoku glaze with kaki trailing. The original Hamada signed and sealed wood storage box is included as well as the written appraised signature of his son Shinsaku Hamada. The vase also comes with a printed artist profile/sales brochure of Hamada (featuring some of his other presumably available work). It appears this piece was offered at the Keio Department store in Shinjuku, Tokyo. At first glance, this may seem odd but in fact, this is quite an honor in Japan. This store is known for selling and exhibiting such high-profile artists and potters as Bernard Leach, Lucie Rie, Gyokudo Kawai, Shiko Munakata, Kawai Kanjiro, and Rosanjin Kitaoji. A major goal of many ceramic artists in Japan is to have a one-man exhibition in a department store. For many Westerners, this is a strange concept. Some of the larger department stores have up to three or four dedicated galleries showing concurrent art exhibitions. A well-known artist's exhibition can bring in hundreds, often thousands, of customers to a store and increase revenue for other sales in the millions-of-yen range. These exhibits are usually longer running and highlight a potter's career, like a Living National...Category
