Tashiko Tazaezu Signed Japanese Studio Pottery Closed Form With Rattle Sculpture
About the Item
A beautiful and quite engaging wonderfully glazed closed-form sculpture with rattle by renowned Japanese Hawaiian American pottery master Toshiko Takaezu, famed for her use of color, texture, scale, multiple glazes, and various free-form shapes, including her orb-like moon pots. This high-fired porcelain piece features a vast array of shifting, vibrant, and colorful glazes (with earth tones of greens, burnt yellows, browns, etc... ). The sculpture/vessel radiates in the light. It is a unique and one-of-a-kind work.
The bowl is signed on the base with her traditional "TT" mark/ monogram.
A rare and special piece. Would be a great addition to any collectors of Toshiko's work or other Mid-Century Modern/Hawaiian art potters or an eye-catching stand-alone work in about any setting. Gorgeous overall with a very Wabi-sabi feel and abstract design.
Takaezu was designated a living treasure in Hawaii in 1987.
