Measuring over 50cm in length, this impressive rectangular container combines strong architectural proportions with a rich, beautifully controlled glaze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pot is formed in a classical \u003cstrong\u003erectangular form (長方鉢)\u003c\/strong\u003e with distinctive flared and shaped corners \u003cstrong\u003e隅張り\u003c\/strong\u003e, giving the otherwise restrained body a powerful architectural character. The corner treatment continues naturally from the upper profile through the walls and into the feet, producing a cohesive and carefully considered silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper opening incorporates a well-defined \u003cstrong\u003einternal rim (内縁 \/ uchi-en)\u003c\/strong\u003e, neatly framing the planting area and adding structural definition to the substantial rectangular form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glaze is particularly attractive, displaying a rich \u003cstrong\u003edeep blue (濃青)\u003c\/strong\u003e with subtle tonal variation across the surface. Under changing light, the glaze reveals fine mottling and areas of deeper indigo and navy, producing considerable depth without distracting from the clean geometry of the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vessel stands on four carefully executed \u003cstrong\u003eincised, angled-cut feet (刻み切足)\u003c\/strong\u003e. The cuts are deliberately angled rather than vertical, and each foot follows the distinctive geometry of the flared corners. This continuation of the corner treatment into the feet gives the pot a strong sense of \u003cstrong\u003echowa (調和)\u003c\/strong\u003e and provides a broad, stable stance appropriate to a container of this size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe underside exposes the finely prepared natural clay body and carries the rectangular \u003cstrong\u003eREIHO 礼峰 seal (落款)\u003c\/strong\u003e.

At \u003cstrong\u003e50.8cm\u003c\/strong\u003e, it has the scale and planting capacity required for a mature bonsai while retaining clean, disciplined proportions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe distinctive flared corner treatment \u003cstrong\u003e隅張り\u003c\/strong\u003e is carried through into the four \u003cstrong\u003eincised angled-cut feet (刻み切足)\u003c\/strong\u003e, creating continuity from the body to the base and giving the pot a particularly resolved appearance from every viewing angle. This attention to structural detail is an important feature for collectors of high-quality contemporary Tokoname pottery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rich \u003cstrong\u003edeep blue glaze (濃青釉)\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the pot considerable visual depth, while the large planting area and six functional \u003cstrong\u003edrain\/wiring holes (排水・針金穴)\u003c\/strong\u003e make it equally accomplished as a practical bonsai container. Combined with the REIHO seal and substantial dimensions, this is a strong contemporary example for both serious cultivation and a collection of modern Japanese bonsai ceramics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sugi Bonsai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58075912700235,"sku":"r1225506123  222","price":392.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0945\/4259\/4379\/files\/IMG_5471_38bb472d-e801-4906-a993-f72538586f29.jpg?v=1786201698","url":"https:\/\/sugibonsai.com\/products\/reiho-%e7%a4%bc%e5%b3%b0-kataoka-katsushi-%e7%89%87%e5%b2%a1%e5%8b%9d%e5%bf%97-%e7%88%aa%e6%8f%8f%e3%81%8d-tokoname-%e5%b8%b8%e6%bb%91%e5%b8%82-50-8cm-rectangular-%e9%95%b7%e6%96%b9%e9%89%a2-deep-blue-glazed-%e6%bf%83%e9%9d%92%e9%87%89","provider":"Sugi Bonsai","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
