Suzuki Goro (b. 1941)’s is an internationally celebrated contemporary ceramic artist based in Seto. His work is celebrated by collectors, makers, and artists around the world. Specializing in Minoyaki (comprising Oribe, Shino, Kiseto glazed pieces), his work can be found in numerous public and private collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and many others. This delightful and whimsical Western-style mug is inscribed in its interior, with fluid and calligraphic striped brushwork around the body in iron underglaze. The handle is glazed in Suzuki Goro's signature Oribe glaze. The work is full of style and play!
Outside of functional wares, Suzuki also experiments in creating highly sculptural forms and objects, including chairs, tall stacked boxes, and objects for display.
