Informal information:

Shunka Seizan isn't in the old pottery books, he only started making in 2006, but his hand carved pots have garnered a lot of attention and it's easy to see why. Michael Ryan Bell has written 3 articles over at www.japanesebonsaipots.net and they're worth checking out.

This example has clear hallmarks of the hand carving process, from the inside lines that grade downwards to the drain holes to the slight variation in the feet. The pot rim has sagged slightly in the firing which is a risk with porcelain, but it just adds character.

The glazing is thick and complex, applied all the way down the feet and underneath which gives it a high quality feel - there are flecks of blue and where the white glaze pools it becomes almost luminous. The crackle has been stained a golden colour but only on the lower half. It's a pot that rewards with more interest the more you look at it, rather special.

Condition: Possibly unused, excellent.

Shunka Seizan, aka Suruga Masayama, real name Kawamura Seishun. Started pottery in 2006 but a veteran of bonsai for over 50 years. Works are all hand carved with more a sense of spontaneity than perfection. Glazes are often multilayered or 'tweaked' for further interest, also produces painted pots with varied glazes.

Shipping:

Shipping within the UK is included in the price.

I usually ship with Royal Mail, if you prefer DPD or Evri, please add a note to your order or email. There may be a surcharge.

EU: Please get in touch with me before placing an order. I will quote you a price that includes shipping and taxes. This is the fastest way to get items without customs delays.

US: Please get in touch. Currently 0% tax on import of art works and cultural items so the price will be lower, but I will need to quote for shipping. I'm not shipping pots over 12in to US.

International: - please ask for a quote for shipping. Any import fees are the responsibility of the customer. I'm not shipping pots over 12in internationally.

Price:

UK buyers: Please note import costs when comparing this item with items overseas! These typically comprise: the shipping fee, and, on arrival, you will pay VAT at 20%, possibly import duty and a customs clearance fee. My items are simply the price advertised.

Returns:

I guarantee that the pot condition is as described and will take it back if you aren't happy with it. Items are returned at the buyers cost & risk. Please be aware that most UK couriers will NOT insure ceramic items, however it is certainly easier than returning overseas. Please get in touch if you want to return an item.

Breakage in Transit:

Sadly, despite the best packaging, it does occassionally happen. Please prepare photo/ video evidence and contact me at the earliest opportunity.
