The accompanying original leaflet names the artist and kiln and includes a short biography.

The vase has four softly rounded sides. Each face is decorated with a delicate, hand-painted motif under the glaze, giving the piece a beautiful all-around presence and a subtle play of light across the crackled surface.

A rare find for ceramic collectors, and at the same time an authentic accent piece that brings quiet character to an interior.

Dimensions: height 26 cm, diameter 15 cm. The vase is stamped on the base. It comes with a wooden storage box and the original leaflet; the calligraphy on the box describes a Shino/Mino piece and appears not to have been written specifically for this vase. This piece has an attribution mark,
