This exquisitely crafted striped kakeoki (water container rest) is very eye-catching. ▼Artist Information 【Magakoro Kosai】 The first Kosai was the descendant (fourth generation) of Yuukou Jibei Masashige, the eldest son of Yuukan Miyagawa Kohe Masakazu, who established Magakoro-yaki. He produced many sencha utensils reflecting the then-popular literati aesthetic, such as sometsuke (blue and white porcelain) and seika (blue and white porcelain) imitations from China. The fourth Kosai began making tea ceremony utensils and received box inscriptions from the Omotesenke school. The fifth Kosai, following his predecessor, also focused on tea ceremony utensils and received box inscriptions from the Urasenke and Mushakouji-senke schools. The current sixth Kosai also actively creates tea ceremony utensils, such as tea bowls, and continues to be energetic, holding numerous solo exhibitions in various locations. ▼Product Size Height: 5 cm / Width: 5.5 cm ※Maximum width.
