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.

Two small dishes in striking crisp colors by celebrated female artist Tokuda Yasokichi IV, one enclosed in the original signed wooden box, the other in an artist mouinted signed frame. The unmounted dish is 15 cm (6 inches) diameter, the framed dish 11.5 cm (4-1/2 inches) diameter and both are in excellent condition.
Tokuda Junko (Yasokichi IV) was born the first child of future Living National Treasure Tokuda Masahiko in 1961. While on a trip to the United States in her mid-20s, the young Tokuda came across a pot from Jingdezhen, China and drew her back to the fold of the family tradition. She graduated from the Institute for Kutani in 1990 and embarked on her path as an artist. Succeeding the family name in 2010 upon the passing of her father, Junko is one of very few female heads of traditional potting family.
