A true part of Kyoto modern ceramic history, this robust vase reminiscent of Okinawan Kaki-otoshi ware was created at the Kyoto 2nd Industrial School circa 1925. It comes in the original wooden box titled Black Glazed Vase with Flower Motif, and signed inside Kyoto Shiritsu Dai Ni Kogyo Gakko followed by a large red seal. It is 27 cm tall, 23 cm diameter and in excellent condition. The roots of the mingei movement, ravaging the Japanese ceramic world at the time, are clearly evident.
The governmental Industrial schools were the proving grounds from a great many young potters before the second world war. The Kyoto 2nd industrial school in Fushimi was split away from the first industrial school in 1920, and remained active until 1963, when it was re-named the Fushimi Industrail High School (Fushimi Kogyo Koko). It is scheduled to close permanently after a century of activity in 2024.
