In this tea bowl by Q Tani, the rich character of Shigaraki clay is brought to life through a natural gradient that fades from a light ochre to a deep, rusty orange towards the base. The bowl's unglazed, high-fired surface reveals subtle textures and iron spots, creating a sense of depth and grounding. Tani’s skillful use of anagama firing allows for this nuanced color development, evoking the timeless quality of Ko-Shigaraki pottery. This piece is a testament to Tani's ability to capture the spirit of ancient Shigaraki ware while instilling it with a contemporary, spiritual resonance.

[Shigaraki ware]
A style of ceramics produced in Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture. Fired at high temperatures without glaze, it is characterized by a tactile landscape resulting from its coarse base material and natural ash glaze. One of the six ancient kilns in Japan.
