This Anagama-fired vase embodies the raw poetry of wood-fired ceramics. Its surface tells the full story of the kiln: pale ash tones drifting into warm clay hues, a smoky charcoal band circling the form, and subtle blushes of orange where the flame kissed the body most intensely. The natural textures - from soft matte gradients to lightly pitted ash deposits - reveal the unpredictable dialogue between earth and fire. The vessel’s rounded, slightly elongated silhouette feels timeless, recalling ancient storage jars while remaining distinctly contemporary. The irregular, gently weathered rim enhances its wabi-sabi presence, making the piece an evocative focal point in any space. Drawing inspiration from the expressive, material-forward approach celebrated by ceramic artists such as Beatričė Kelerienė, this vase stands as a testament to the beauty of process: unrepeatable, elemental, and deeply tactile.
