About the object: Kikuchi Torus bowl is approx. 7 cm high and has a diameter of 15 cm. The very dark Japanese clay and the earthy, almost black glaze give the bowl a wonderful texture. The bowl is extremely decorative and can be used to store beautiful everyday items as well as food. This bowl is a unique piece.
Production method: Toru Kikuchi's pottery style is very special. He first chooses the weight of the clay and then starts making shapes as he comes up with them. The individual pieces in a series may be similar in weight, but are often different in shape and never the same. His pieces are artistic, but also have a practical use as vases or bowls. Toru experiments with different glazes, which often leads to unexpected but beautiful results.
