Amazing Bizen Vase by Konishi Toko II
A dramatic piece by Konishi Toko II enclosed in the original signed and stamped wooden box. Firing while on its side has created a tremendous landscape on the vase. Bidoro runs from the point, spreading like liquid to the burnt red back around two eyes (formed where the piece was supported in the kiln) and kuro Goma Kasu of solidified ash chars the surface. The piece is 9-3/4 inches (25 cm) tall and in perfect condition. Toko of course, learned from his father Toko I (1899-1954) and was succeeded by his own son Toko III.
