{"product_id":"seiji-urigata-teapot-6","title":"Seiji Urigata Teapot #6","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eTsuyoshi Ueno works almost entirely in Nanban-yaki, an unglazed, wood-fired style that leans on clay and flame rather than applied glaze for its character: pieces spend 7 to 10 days in the kiln, where ash and flame play across the raw clay body to build deep, variegated surfaces in reds, browns, and near-black tones. Alongside his unglazed work, he brings in white slip Kohiki for contrast and a moss-like ash glaze that pools and breaks unevenly across the form, echoing the same fire-driven unpredictability as his Nanban pieces. His forms tend toward a solid, weighty presence, teapots, houhin, katakuchi pitchers, and guinomi with thick, assertive walls and a masculine, grounded quality that favors quiet strength over refinement, a direct expression of Wabi Sabi.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eArtist:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.teadealers.com\/collections\/tsuyoshi-ueno\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTsuyoshi Ueno\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eOrigin:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMade in Kagawa, Japan (Shikoku)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNotes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNo box available; please note capacity and sizing details before purchasing.
