Informal information:

Mould made, hand finished, excellent rich colour with years of patina from long use. Suishoen got lucky with this pot, there is some slight bloating, meaning the kiln was a little too hot for the clay, it was probably close to the flame. However, the pot has survived this long, so clearly not an issue. 

Condition: Used, excellent.


Suishoen Hekisui (Mizukami Shozo), founded in 1933, famous as a master of the potters wheel. Production had ceased by the early 2000s after a generation of manufacture. Principally made 40cm pots, in later years made small and larger pots. Methods used were hand pressing in moulds and casting.
