Matsuoka Mizuki Silver Glazed Vase

This is a silver-glazed vase by Mizuki Matsuoka. Matsuoka's works are characterized by their tranquil, sculptural beauty. Each piece is meticulously crafted, emphasizing the inner expanse of the vessel, how it feels in the hand, and the beauty of negative space. His works include unglazed ceramics that bring out the natural expression of the clay, and ash glazes that change with use. Among these, the series of white vessels with silver glazing is particularly striking for its delicate beauty. ＜Care Instructions＞ Sealing: Tea stains may occur.
