This flower vase by Shigeyoshi Morioka is fired without glaze in a traditional multi-chamber wood kiln. Using the nanban technique, its surface is formed through flame, ash, and air aloneβyielding a natural gradient of warm orange, deep brown, and dry grey.
The form is solid yet asymmetrical, grounded in quiet presence. Its pitted, sandy surface recalls old storage vessels, but it no longer serves utility aloneβit stands as an object of time and trace, holding space even in stillness.
