[wholesale] Vase by Shuji Haneishi

This piece is by master potter Shūji Haneishi. It is a piece decorated in salt glaze in the potter's maki-gama, wood fired kiln. The possibilities or firing ceramics in this way have fascinated potters in Japan for centuries, and Haneishi works in this legacy. The right wood, the right kiln conditions, with days spent achieving them, with most important to the process: the element of chance and discovery that the potter battles to create.

A potter in Kasama since the late 1980s, Haneishi is an expert in shaping these forms, and in creating the natural kiln conditions in which they come alive.

With a natural glaze finish, and a careful raking of the surface, this piece was fired in Shūji Haneishi's traditional wood-fired kiln.  The ceramic processes give it a one of a kind decoration that expresses the moment at which it was made.
