This hand-thrown sake server by Shigeyoshi Morioka is fired unglazed in a traditional multi-chamber wood kiln. The clay body reveals a shifting surface of burnt ochre, smoky grey, and fire-darkened blackβmarks of flame, ash, and time.
The piece is grounded and robust, with a rounded belly, generous handle, and sharply angled spout designed for slow pouring. The lid rises into a subtle peak, echoing the shape of fire-tempered mountain stone. Rugged yet balanced, this vessel honors function without sacrificing spiritβit is meant to be used, not displayed.
