Note:

Renowned as the most celebrated Japanese potter of the 20th century, Shoji Hamada studied under porcelain artist Itaya Hazan at Tokyo Technical College, graduating in 1916. While working at the Kyoto Ceramics Research Institute, he met key figures like Tomimoto Kenkichi and Kawai Kanjiro. In 1920, he traveled to England with Bernard Leach, building the West’s first Japanese-style climbing kiln in St Ives. After returning to Japan in 1924, Hamada settled in Mashiko and co-founded the Japan Art Association (1926) and the Japan Folk Art Museum (1936). He was designated a Living National Treasure in 1955.
作为20世纪日本最负盛名的陶艺家,濱田庄司曾师从东京技术学院瓷器大师板谷波山,1916年毕业。任职京都陶瓷研究所期间,与富本憲吉、河井寛次郎等陶艺大师结缘。1920年随英国陶艺家伯纳德·利奇访英,在圣艾夫斯建造西方首座日本风格登窑。1924年归国后定居益子,成为民艺运动核心人物,先后创立日本艺术协会(1926年)及日本民艺馆(1936年)。1955年被认定为人间国宝。
本组大型石器盘及茶碗展示濱田庄司对传统造型与自然釉色的卓越掌控。盘形宽大,釉色细腻变化;茶碗造型和谐,手感极佳,适合茶道使用,作品整体体现其质朴美学与精湛工艺。
