Suigetsu is one of Japan's most famous and respected ceramic artists. The vase is handmade and belongs to the premium design series Mitsukoshi. These unusual pieces of jewelry are unfortunately reserved for only a few lovers of Japanese ceramic art, too time-consuming are the production and ornate decoration of the beautiful Mitsukoshi products. They were made from the famous, natural purple clay of the Mie Prefecture.

Hiroshi Suigetsu is one of the great artists of traditional Japanese ceramic manufacturing. As the third master, he has led the Yokkaichi Ceramic Association for many years, his impressive career is accompanied by many honors and awards. The products in the Mitsukoshi series, after coming out of the wood-fired traditional ceramic kiln, are artfully decorated by Suigetsu using a special sandblasting technique. The sublimity of the decoration and the different textures of the surface require a very high artistic skill, which even in Japan only a few ceramic artists have. The dreamlike vase truly deserves a special place in the home of connoisseurs.
