The principal essay provides a biography of Seifū Yohei III, the star of the studio and the first ceramist to be named an Imperial Household Artist, as well as an overview of the studio that contextualises it in the world of literati painting, sencha (steeped green tea) and international trade. A second essay offers a brief history of porcelain production in Kyoto, as well as a discussion of objects produced by the Seifū studio for sencha. This catalogue of a hundred works examines the wide variety of forms, decorative techniques and glazes that made the studio's works unique.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Shinya Maezaki, Sinéad Vilbar\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Giles\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Cleveland Masterwork #7\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 216\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.43h x 8.50w x 0.63d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781913875541","brand":"Giles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42704946495625,"sku":"9781913875541","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_ccbbf8de-ca26-44e6-9e99-acdf97075883.jpg?v=1719431048","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/colors-of-kyoto-the-seif-yohei-ceramic-studio-9781913875541","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
