The mouth of this vessel by Kato Yasuhide is placed off center, dissonant to the linear decoration which causes a tension between the two. It comes enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Senmon Beni Hakusai Henko (Red and White Colored Odd Shaped Vessel with Line Decoration). It is 30 cm (12 inches) tall, 18.5 x 13.5 cm (7-1/4 x 5-1/2 inches) at the base and I excellent condition. Retaining the original Shifuu and Shiori.
Kato Yasuhide was born the eldest son of (to be) Living National Treasure Kato Takuo in 1945. He came to prominence when he was awarded top prize at the Asahi Ceramic Art Exhibition in 1975. Focusing on sculptural forms, he was awarded and served as a juror for the Nitten National Exhibition where he exhibited consistently. In 1995 he succeeded the family name, becoming Kato Kobei VII. In 2000, upon the death of his father, he withdrew from the Nitten and in 2006 picked up his fathers legacy of research into Persian and silk Road ceramics. He has received high praise, awarded the status of holder of intangible cultural properties in Tajimi City and is former President of the Mino Ceramic Society.
