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.

A fabulous low painterly bowl by Ohmae Satoru enclosed in the original signed wooden box titled Onigashima Kuro-Korai Hai. It is 7 cm (3 inches) diameter, 4 cm (1-1/2 inches) tall and in perfect condition, directly from the artist this summer.
Ohmae Satoru was born in Osaka in 1972. He began decorating Kenzan style pottery in Kobe in 1991 with his brother. It was in 1994 he began making Nanban style unglazed pottery. His first solo exhibition was held in Osaka in 1999, and he moved to Shigaraki in 2001 where he began working on Iga and Shigaraki style wood-fired pottery and at the same time began holding solo exhibitions nationwide. He built a fully underground anagama kiln in 2003 but became interested in glazed pottery in 2005 and began creating white porcelain and Karatsu ware. In 2007, he was attracted to Korean pottery from the Joseon Dynasty and started experimenting with Ido tea bowls and persimmon calyx tea bowls using anagama kiln firing techniques. After absorbing many styles, he reached a turning point in 2010, when he moved to Awaji Island and built a semi-underground anagama kiln and a raku kiln. He started making black raku ware. In 2016, he began using clay from Awaji Island to make white raku ware.
