About the Artwork
I created this piece for exhibition, featuring a generously rounded body designed to showcase the "Gohon-te" patterns at their most beautiful.
The bands of scarlet appearing at the top and bottom provide a sharp contrast that defines the entire vessel; combined with the voluminous form, it achieved an exceptionally high level of artistic completion.

Techniques Used
Hagi ware
Hagi ware is a type of pottery predominantly made around the cities of Hagi, Nagato, and Yamaguchi in Yamaguchi prefecture. Vessels are made with Daido clay, Mitake clay, and Mishima clay. The resulting stoneware is rarely decorated with motifs, as the texture and qualities of the clay are key points of visual interest that appeal to tea ceremony practitioners.
