Higuchi Sanae Small Bowl

This is a piece by Sanae Higuchi, a potter working in Mashiko-machi, Haga-gun, Tochigi Prefecture, a town famous for its ceramics.

Higuchi's style is characterized by beautiful, hand-painted designs on each piece.
Her motifs vary widely, from mosaic patterns to animals and plants, but the overall design has a cohesive feel.

Her oriental patterns, which also incorporate Japanese tastes, are filled with a unique originality rarely seen elsewhere.
In recent years, she has added the "ittchin" technique, creating an even more diverse range of works.
Please try incorporating these delightful vessels into your daily life, imagining how you might use them.
