This piece is a pottery work that, at first glance, captivates with its natural form and the unique texture of its glaze. The rough, textured surface and the deep shades of blue and gray blend together to evoke a mystical impression, reminiscent of natural landscapes or even the universe. This kind of texture is born from the high-level techniques of the renowned artist Baba Takashi, who uses natural glazes and a firing process, resulting in a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

This work can be appreciated both visually and tactilely, and its charm will only grow as it becomes more familiar to your hands with time and use.
