About the Artwork

I formed this vessel with the image of a sacred gem and created a covered vessel like a wish-fulfilling jewel by adding inlays.

Techniques Used

Wood turning

In wood turning (hikimono), a piece of wood is rotated on a lathe and shaped with various cutting tools. Wood turning is suited to the creation of round trays, containers, and bowls. Different blades and cutting angles can be used to produce a wide range of forms. Balanced, symmetrical forms are made by spinning the lathe at a constant speed.
