mimosa glaze pot
Michikazu Sakai creates works in an anagama kiln, which has strong flames and a strong flow of smoke, and is unique and has a strong sense of coincidence. Despite the difficult environment in which the way the kiln is packed and the way the fire is fired, the result of the firing changes completely, but through repeated trial and error, his works are brilliantly controlled, resulting in surprisingly crunchy, crispy and high-quality baked goods.
While incorporating traditional techniques and glazes, Michiichi's works are very modern with sharp shapes.
Looking at the plates, there is no strange blurring or unevenness, and it is clear that they are grinding with a sense of speed without hesitation. In other words, it has a very high affinity with cooking. The tea utensils made by Mr. Doichi, who loves tea, are also wonderful, especially the Chinese tea utensils such as tea cups and tea pots.
Well, depending on the maker, various wood ash glazes are used. When Michiichi was still making pottery in Nagano, he used apple wood ash glaze and chestnut ash glaze, which were familiar to him, as a standard. Since I moved to Kagawa, I have been making glazes from the ash of mimosa trees that I planted in my kiln.
Such a mimosa glaze pot has a unique bottom-heavy proportion that looks like a combination of a trapezoid and a circle. The center of gravity is placed horizontally, but the handle is slightly higher, so the weight balance is adjusted and it is very easy to use.
I highly recommend the mimosa glaze, which is fun to grow with penetration.
Body Diameter: Approx. 10cm / Diameter: Approx. 6cm / Height: Approx. 9.5cm (Including Knob)
Capacity: Approximately 270ml (scraped measurement)
There are individual differences in the glaze, color, and size as this is an artist's work.
