Enveloped in vivid yohen blue, this flower vase evokes the mysterious beauty of the deep sea. This unique coloration is an unpredictable result of firing in a climbing kiln for over ten days. The artist, Takashi Baba, has shaped the vase with a sculptural form, featuring by multiples angular cuts that resemble the rugged texture of an old tree trunk. Baba’s dedication to the traditional unglazed yakishime style of pottery shines through in this Bizen flower vase, as he channels all his energy into revealing the hidden vibrancy of nature’s colors like never before.

He pursues his own unique works in a wood-fired climbing kiln with bold expressions of color and form inspired by his study of sculpture. The juxtaposition of deep black color and the vivid “yohen” effects that are achieved unpredictably during firing seems particularly striking.
