A short-neck teardrop-shaped single-flower Bizen ware vase made by Kyo Isezaki (1970-), the fourth son of Mitsuru Isezaki, an intangible cultural asset of Okayama Prefecture.  Bizen ware (or Bizen-yaki in Japanese) is primitive, simple unglazed ceramics shaped out of clay and flames, a type of Japanese pottery originated in Bizen province, which is currently a part of Okayama prefecture.  Its style is characterized by its simple and natural appearance, often with rustic and powerful expressions resulting from high-temperature firing.

[IMPORTANT Notice to U.S. Buyers]
As of October 17, 2025, eBay requires Japanese sellers to ship to the U.S. under DDP (Delivered Duty Paid). We cover all import taxes, fees, and customs duties for U.S. buyers, so you should not be required to pay any additional costs upon delivery.

[IMPORTANT Notice to non-U.S. Buyers]
We suggest making a discounted offer first or contacting us for a discount if you like, because your order will be shipped from Japan under DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid) and may be subject to import taxes, fees, and customs duties levied by your local customs office, which vary according to your local regulations. This allows us to adjust the price so the total cost remains reasonable for you.
