Shoji Hamada, Ceramic, Flat Vase (Henko)

Description

Type: Ceramic, Henko
Pottery: Mashiko-yaki
Height: Approximately 20 cm
Width: Approximately 11.5 cm
Depth: Approximately 7 cm
This vase was inherited by the consignor from their grandmother approximately 60 years ago, who was born during the Meiji era. The consignor's grandparents were acquainted with Bernard Leach and Hamada Shoji, thus confirming its authenticity.
I cannot clearly read the inscription on the inside of the box lid, but it seems to say "Henko" , which I have used as the product name.
