About the object: Yumiko Shimoya's vase is approx. 14 cm high and has a diameter of 7 cm. The classic shape of this vase made of Japanese clay looks extremely elegant thanks to the Shinogi decoration. The light glazed vase is waterproof, likes to stand alone, but also in a group with other beautiful vases and is ideal for single flowers or branches, dry or fresh, due to its shape and elegance.
Manufacturing process: Yumiko Shimoya follows the concept of Utsuwa ("ceramics that gently blend into everyday life") and produces beautiful vases and vessels using the Shinogi technique. Shinogi is a carving technique in which a pattern is carefully carved into the surface of the pottery using suitable tools. This technique has been used since ancient times and, despite its precision, is subject to subtle variations that are unique to the craft. The vase is glazed.

- Yumiko Shimoya's vases and bowls should be washed by hand. Use clear water or at most gentle cleaning agents and no abrasive sponges.
- Dry the vessel carefully after cleaning to avoid water stains.
- Ceramic pots can be rougher on the underside than pots made of other materials. We therefore recommend protecting sensitive surfaces on which the jar is to be placed from scratching if necessary.
