This is a "Sometsuke Iron-Painted Dan-ai Bowl" by ceramic artist Harumi Shoji. The piece combines gentle, delicate designs with a relaxed, generous feel, making it a pleasure to use. Brand new, unused, and comes with the original box! I received this as a gift, but I haven't had the opportunity to use it, so it has been stored at home. This work is a sometsuke bowl with a blue floral pattern on a white background, painted using the iron-painting technique. The artist expresses beautiful flowers with sometsuke and is loved for her generous style. 【About Harumi Shoji】 ■ Biography Born in Meguro, Tokyo in 1947. Majored in ceramics at Tokyo University of the Arts, studying under Professor Yoshimichi Fujimoto. After graduating, she worked in Tokyo and later established a studio in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, her father's hometown. She produces many sometsuke works with flowers as motifs. Because she rarely uses carving after forming on the potter's wheel, her works are durable and robust. ■ Features of the Work A sometsuke bowl with a blue floral pattern on a white background.
