Mimosa glaze lid small
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.
Various wood ash glazes are used depending on the maker. 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.
It is such a mimosa glaze lid. The delicate hooks are stylish, and the tightness of the lids is very good, with no individual differences. By the way, this lid is indispensable as a salt pot and a sugar pot in Mr. Sakai's home. It seems that they also put rakkyo in it and put in sweets such as candy and konpeito.
Diameter: Approx. 6.5~7cm / Height: Approx. 9~9.5cm (including knob)
There are individual differences in the glaze, color, and size as this is an artist's work.
