A haiki (ash container) in Shigaraki ware, made by Takahashi Rakusai for use in the Japanese tea ceremony. The piece emphasizes the natural clay texture and kiln-fired effects characteristic of Shigaraki ware.
Takahashi Rakusai is the name of a lineage of potters representing Shigaraki ware in Shiga Prefecture, Japan. The 3rd Rakusai (1898–1976) was certified as a preserver of Shigaraki ware techniques by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry in 1941 and designated a holder of Shiga Prefecture's Intangible Cultural Property in 1964. Together with the 4th Uwada Naokata, he is regarded as one of the two representative master craftsmen of modern Shigaraki ware.
