About the Artwork
A slender gourd-shaped vase with three ridges.
I cut the rim into a triangular shape in conformity with the ridges. The shape of the mouth keeps the flowers in place, making the vase easy to use.
I used pale blue glaze on the upper side, and traditional Mushiake ash glaze from the middle towards the bottom. The loquat color and bright green are a result of color change from firing in the kiln.
The combination of the soft and quiet color tone that you won't get tired of and the form makes this a charming vase.

Ash glaze
Ash glazes (kaiyū) are ceramic glazes made from the ashes of plants, such as wood or straw. Traditionally, these are divided into three categories: pure wood ash, which is made from the bark of trees such as oak and chestnut and has a faintly blue hue; hearth ash, which contains impurities and has a faintly bluish-green hue; and straw ash, which produces a milky-white glaze.
