A visually striking bonsai pot by Hisada Shizuo. It features harmonious proportions and is crafted from grayish clay (hairo no doro). Its defined, straight, and angular corners—known as kittate—lend a strong sense of solidity, accentuated by the obi-iri, a band between the lip and the base.
His real name was Hisada Shizuo (久田静雄), born on December 8, 1933, in the 8th year of the Shōwa era. He was known artistically as Keizan (佳山) and trained under his father. Throughout his life, he maintained an uninterrupted dedication to ceramic creation, an activity that only ceased with his death. He cultivated a style inherited from the previous generation, characterized by soft lines and restrained vigor; however, his works were distinguished by a unique personality that made them unmistakable.
