Etsuji Noguchi: Yakishime Mizusashi (Water Jar)

Exhibition Venue: KYO AMAHARE

A work by Etsuji Noguchi, where delicate layers of color unfold in quiet harmony.

The natural simplicity of yakishime ceramics, together with the unique expressions created within the kiln, come together to evoke a serene and profound sense of beauty.

This piece features a water jar crafted by Noguchi-san, with its rich and expressive ceramic surface, paired with an elegant wooden lid by Shimoo Design.
The powerful texture of the clay and the warmth conveyed through the wooden lid resonate with one another, creating a refined harmony through the contrast of these materials.

The lid is available in two colors, gray and black, allowing one to enjoy different expressions by selecting the appropriate combination according to the changing seasons and the setting of the tea gathering.
