Height (13.3 cm) Diameter (10.7 cm)
Double box.
Produced in 1977.
Exhibited at the Old Karatsu and Muan/Taroemon Exhibition, No. 87, work featured in the study.
Published by Yomiuri Shimbun in 1984.
This is a valuable item with Muan's original "Mu" engraved on the bottom, as well as the highly valued "three arrows" often seen in well-made works that show the artist's deep feelings.
This is a sake bottle by Nakazato Muan, an artist who is known for producing few sake vessels. Sake vessels themselves are rarely seen, and in his later years, he created a sake cup bearing the name "Muan," which is even rarer than the sake bottles.
The rim has a wavy texture and the body is plump and rounded, giving it a stable shape, with Mishima flowers carefully applied all over it. White clay is inlaid into the recesses of the seal, and the white flowers showing through the top glaze create a beautiful finish that exudes a delicate and gentle feeling. Even for Karatsu ware, this is a product that requires a lot of time and effort, so originally only a small number were produced. It is an extremely rare Karatsu Mishima tokkuri, even even for the Muan period, and its elegant appearance exudes deep emotion, making it fitting to speak of the state of maturity achieved during the Muan period. An aesthetic sense that was not limited to Karatsu is expressed in this product.
