EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite incense box in the shape of a turtle, originating from Kyoto during the Edo period. Crafted by the skilled hands of Koho Hon ami, a renowned artist from that era, this unglazed Shigaraki-style stoneware piece is truly a masterpiece. Measuring at 4.9x5.9x8.8 cm, it may be small in size but its artistic value is immeasurable. The intricate details and lifelike representation of the turtle make this incense box a true work of art. The texture and coloration on the ceramic surface add depth and character to this remarkable creation. It is currently housed in the prestigious Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D. C. , USA. Gifted to the gallery by Charles Lang Freer, this Japanese treasure holds significant historical importance as it represents both cultural heritage and artistic excellence from centuries ago.
