Saishiki Vase - Small Totem The surface transforms into carbonSmall cylinder vase in a saishiki glaze by Tetsuya Kowari from March 2026. This work is finished in Kowari's vibrant, painterly, saishiki style, with abstract, geometric markings defining areas of colour, rendered over a black base and intersected by dramatic carved lines. Each vessel is an embodiment of the marriage between fire, clay and glaze, a true emblem of ceramic mastery and tradition. dimensions height: 13cm diameter: 6cm opening: 2. 5cm
