Bell-shaped cup with the moon in relief c. 2002

"Bell-shaped cup with the moon in relief" is a delicate ceramic teacup and saucer created by Masato Imaizumi in 2002. The cup features a simple, bell-shaped form with a smooth white glaze, while the saucer has an understated blue line around its edge. This minimalist design exemplifies the artist's focus on functional beauty, reflecting a traditional Japanese aesthetic. The piece is small, measuring just 4.3 cm in height, and is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of contemporary Japanese ceramics.
