Shuhari Collection Vase – Autumn Coastline

Ochre and charcoal drift across the shoulder like a coastline seen from above, fading into pale porcelain below — the gold-touched rim catching light like the last hour before dusk.

Thrown in Japanese porcelain by Nishihara Akira in Arita, Japan, then saggar-fired by John Mac in France using the same combustibles as the Echoes of Fire series — wood chips, copper wire, dried flowers, pine cones, and metal oxides. The exterior is completely unglazed; all surface decoration comes from the fire itself.

Part of the Shuhari Collection — a collaboration between two makers, two traditions, and one act of surrender to the fire.
