Maiko Miyaoka of Kagetsu Kiln in Ome City, Tokyo.
He specializes in works resembling early Imari ware. Miyaoka's works are very gentle and warm, perhaps reflecting his personality. The rich glaze and form are far from self-exhibitionist and have a calming effect on the soul.
It has a warm and relaxing feel, yet it has the strength and depth of pottery. This is because it is modelled on ancient pottery but does not rely on it. The murmur of a clear stream flowing smoothly. The sunlight filtering through the trees.
Please come and see this rare work that will put you at a speed different from your everyday life.
