Yamasan Japan, Large Ikebana Form

I recently came across this large, tri footed Ikebana vessel by Yamasan Japan. It is a very modernist and architectural looking piece with its sweeping lines and sweeping curves

Ikebana vessels by this maker I used to find frequently, but this is the first piece I have come across in about 5 years. 

It’s also different from the textured glazes frequently seen by this maker as well – being a smooth satin, brown ochre colour with some nice details like the carved panels, and the contrasting clear light green colour on the inside.
