By Appointment is best. You might get lucky just popping by, but a great deal of the month I am out visiting artists or scouring up new items, so days in the gallery are limited.

Ready to soar off the table, a magnificent basin by Minegishi Seiko enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Suiseiji Utsuwa. The glaze is like layers of shattered ice, mirror smooth and emerald (actually Jade according to the title). It is 46 x 30 x 20 cm (18 x 12 x 8 inches) and in perfect condition.
Born in 1952 in Saitama, Minegishi Seiko studied under various masters in Nagano, Tochigi and Ibaragi, going solo at the young age of 22. He worked in Kohiko ware initially, but moved to celadon, and is considered one of a select few true masters of that form in Japan today. He moved his kiln from Saitama to Nasu in Tochigi in 1993, and has since exhibited with the Nihon Dento Kogei Ten, Dento Kogei Shinsaku Ten and Nihon Togeiten among others.
