Informal information:
A very fine rectangle by Koshosen, 2nd Generation Yamaaki potter. The slight curve to the sides, deeply cut corners and well planted feet create a powerful image - this pot is for a suitably strong looking tree.Typical rich Koshosen clay colour, very high quality hand finishing on the details, a superb pot that will only improve with patina.
Condition: Possibly used (lightly), excellent.
Koshosen, real name Sadamitsu Kataoka, also took the name Matsuizumi after his father passed away. The Yamaaki kiln was the most productive bonsai pot factory in Tokoname, thanks to Shosen Seniors modernisation. They fired a large gas kiln, producing very popular pots that captured the spirit of ancient Chinese pots. Only pots with nail signatures were handmade.
Koshosen's pots are perhaps the most collectible of the Yamaaki kilns works. They are less in number, the clay is different and a different colour, and details if not the whole pot are hand made in nature.
