Its shape is reminiscent of a small amphora that opens upward in a tulip-like form. The contrast between clean lines and organic curves makes this piece a true eye-catcher. The dark Japanese clay, combined with a partially rough, matte glaze, creates an extraordinary surface effect. Edges and rims shimmer in a warm red hue, reminiscent of volcanic embers. Only upon closer inspection do the fine nuances of the glaze emerge, lending the object additional depth. \u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eThe vase looks stunning on its own but also works well in a group with other vases or vessels. It is suitable for flowers or branches of all kinds that are appropriately sized. This vase is a one-of-a-kind piece.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturing process:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toru Kikuchi’s pottery style is quite unique. He first selects the weight of the clay and then begins shaping it however inspiration strikes him. As a result, the individual pieces in a series may be similar in weight, but they often differ in shape and are never identical. His pieces are works of art, yet they also serve a practical purpose as vases or bowls. Toru experiments with different glazes, which often leads to unexpected but beautiful results.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e\u0026nbsp; \u003c\/span\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"mso-fareast-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note: This \u003c\/strong\u003eproduct is part of our \"Japan Affairs\" exhibition and will not be shipped until the end of June after purchase.\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Toru Kikuchi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57240251138421,"sku":"12580021","price":100.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/8908\/8275\/files\/Toru-Kikuchi-KT21-japanische-keramik-vase-rotbraun-mit-henkel_mood-2.jpg?v=1781371655","url":"https:\/\/haptik.de\/en\/products\/toru-kikuchi-vase-geschwungen-mit-henkel-anthrazit-rot-japanische-keramik-kt21","provider":"haptik - Galerie für Gebrauchskunst","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
