This is a Kawaii Kanjiro vase purchased from the Borsum Estate.
Japanese Mingei Pottery Collection
“The Borsum collection represented an extraordinary gathering of works by Shoji Hamada, Atsuya Hamada, Kanjiro Kawai, and Hiroshi Kawai. The archival documentation contained including original loan agreements, exhibition correspondence, typed inventories, handwritten valuation sheets, and academic letters — establishes provenance connecting this collection to major exhibitions and scholarly figures of the 1960s/70s Mingei movement.
Many of these pieces have been displayed at various prestigious museums around the country including the local Mingei International Museum”.
