By Kusube Yaichi (1897-1984), signed YaJapan, 20th centuryThe large and rounded figure with a finely crackled creamy white glaze, naturalistically modelled as a plump mythical hare (tama usagi) hunched on all fourswith its head tilted back, the long ears gracefully falling over its head, and its eyes painted in a subtle pale red, imitating amber inlays. The base unglazed revealing the white biscuit, signed YA [of Yaichi].With the original wood tomobako inscribed on the cover Tamausagi okimono, YAICHI saku [made by Yaichi, the white hare okimono].LENGTH 17.6 cmCondition: Excellent condition with only minor wear and firing irregularities.Kusube Yaichi (1897-1984) was a renowned Japanese ceramist, recognized internationally as a leading figure in Japanese Art Nouveau and Art Déco. His work earned early acclaim, including awards at the 1925 International Exhibition in Paris and the 1927 Imperial Art Exhibition in Teiten. Kusube co-founded influential ceramist associations such as Hakujinkai, Seitoka, and Sekido, promoting pottery as art. In 1962, he was appointed to the Japan Art Academy, and in 1978, he was honored with the Order of Cultural Merit for his extraordinary career as a ceramist.The playful motif refers to the story of inaba no shirousagi (The White Hare of Inaba), from the Records of Ancient Matters (Kojiki, ca. 710). According to this legend, a white rabbit crossed the ocean from Okino Island to the mainland at Inaba by using the backs of sharks as stepping stones and in doing so appeared to be running over the tops of the waves. This text was later referenced in the Noh play Chikubushima (Chikubushima Island), which describes the moon’s reflection in Lake Biwa as a rabbit (a legendary inhabitant of the moon) running over the waves.
