Uko Marita (Born Japan)

Provenance:
Bought directly from the artist in 2000

I was closely acquainted with Uko Morita when I first came to New York in 1994. In fact, this unglazed Mizusashi used in the Japanese Tea-Ceremony was the very first piece of ceramic that I acquired from him. It was one of his earlier works that he had produced in the 80s.
