" In my assistant years, I especially learned about color combination of glass from Jim and Deborah. After I returned to Japan, I started making murrine works with Ushio Konishi to find out our own way. In 2011, I was selected in " The Yearing Venetian Glass Exhibition " at Suntory Museum in Tokyo. I am always trying to find out new and original art expression in my work. "
Hand-Painted Porcelain Platter
by Ruri Takeuchi
$6,000
“With each individual work, including the title, I condense a single universe into that piece. The motifs are mostly inspired by nature, and I find it most satisfying when someone is able to look at my work and experience a soft breeze, hear the voice of a bird, or recreate a feeling from some story.”

by Eiko Tanaka

As
the lathe turns, she uses her sharpened utensils to carefully carve out
a light and delicate form. From a traditional form of artistry, her
exquisite skill and confidence comes from experience and passion; she
listens and reacts to the wood while shaping its surfaces. Eiko's
refined techniques are guided by the beauty of the wood grain, which
radiates from beneath the layer of lacquer. Every work, though
contemporary, is every bit intertwined with its history.
