A brilliantly textured Oni-Hagi bowl dating from the early 20th century by Deika (Sakata Deika XII, died 1934), the radically fissured surface ruptured by exploding inclusions; the scars connected by cracks in the glaze giving the appearance of constellations written into a yellow sky. Outside the bowl is an earthy beige, mostly eclipsed by pale white. Inside the basin is the same earthy color, while all the walls are like salt foam. Surrounding all of the scars is a gray mist, accenting and drawing ones attention to each in turn. On the white side is a sketch of the married rocks at Ise in dark gray. The artists stamp is clearly visible impressed into the clay beside the notched foot ring and the base has been much worn. The bowl comes inside a wooden box labeled Hagi Wan and annotated (not by the artist). It measures 4-5/8 inches (11.5 cm) diameter, 3-1/2 inches (8.7 cm) tall. It has a very natural feel, and tucks firmly and comfortably into the palm. Mori Terumoto, Lord of Hagi brought two Korean potters to Japan and had them found this kiln, and the line has continued unbroken to today. The current Deika is the 14th generation.
