‘Bonsai’ 凡才 (Matsushita Hiroyuki)
A cool pot and potter name! .. ‘Bon sai’.
His potter name 凡才 is a play on words, it is pronounced ‘bonsai’ (the same pronunciation as 盆栽)’ but means ‘mediocre’.
Far from mediocre, Bonsai excels in making fantastic rugged and natural-looking pieces (you may have seen his boxed nanban). This pot is a rustic rectangle, with loads of character. This piece either has some glaze or was more likely affected by fumes, flames, and ash in a wood-fired kiln. The two carved lines, in a wave-like motion, add to the organic feel of the pot.
Hand-signed by the artist.
