Flask (tokkuri) 2012

Imaizumi Takeshi's 2012 "Flask (tokkuri)" is a stunning example of contemporary Japanese ceramics. The small, rounded vessel is glazed in a beautiful celadon hue, with a distinctive crackled finish known as "krakle" that adds depth and texture to the surface. The vase's simple yet elegant form and sophisticated glaze make it a striking piece of functional art, showcasing the artist's mastery of traditional techniques and their ability to create a modern interpretation of a timeless design.
