The green here isn't doing what most green glazes do — this is exceptional application, the kind where you can tell the artist understood the material deeply: how it would move in the kiln, where it would pool, how it would settle across a wide, generous body. For a round pot with this kind of presence, that glaze control makes all the difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe form itself is built for impact. Wide-bodied and low, with pronged feet that lift it just right and a glazed bottom that tells you this was thought through to the last detail. At 8.5\" circumference, it's a compact but substantial piece — well within shohin-to-small mid-size territory, depending on how you're measuring your tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pot is hand-signed rather than chop-marked, which for collectors tracking Fukushige's work adds a personal dimension to the provenance.

At 16\" x 12.5\" x 5\" deep, this Yamaaki is a commanding presence — the kind of pot that earns its footprint. The form is confident and clean, with the proportions that tell you immediately the maker knew exactly what they were doing. What makes it a conversation piece are the gargoyle feet: not your standard corner nubs, but an expressive sculptural choice that gives the pot a personality all its own. The worm-eaten surface texture adds another layer of character — a tactile, organic quality that only deepens the sense of age and authenticity. This is a pot that's been somewhere and done something.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvenance is solid: it carries both a chop mark and a nail signature, the kind of double authentication that collectors look for in serious Japanese studio work.

The thick, flared rim carries decorative worm-eaten detail that reads as intentional texture rather than damage: the kind of surface character that collectors hunt for. The feet are choppy and confident, each one with its own handmade personality, grounding the pot without fussing about it. The unglazed clay body shows the honest warmth of well-fired stoneware, and the overall throwing and finishing reflect a maker at full command of the form. Corner and rim work is crisp where it should be, relaxed where it earns it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAuthentication doesn't get much cleaner than this: double chop marks paired with a nail signature, the hallmark of a signed second-generation Yamaaki piece. Condition is about as good as it gets for a pot of this age and caliber — no chips, no cracks, nothing that competes with the pot itself. This is a display-worthy piece that also has the scale to carry a serious collected tree.
