This wide-mouthed vase by Shigeyoshi Morioka is fired in the traditional nanban style, with no glaze but that of flame and ash. Its surface, left to the will of the kiln, ranges from charred black to reddish brown—a record of wood, air, and heat.
The form is quiet, weighty, and imperfect. With a rounded body and gently curved lip, it feels more like a relic than a design—something shaped over time, not concept. It is a vessel that invites simplicity: a single branch, a dry arrangement, or nothing at all.
