Dimensions(LWH)≒8.5 x 8.5 x 14.5 cm Weight≒423g The hand-thrown wood-fired straight cylindrical vase features a simple design. The unpredictable interplay of clay, fire, and ash creates unique natural ash glaze patterns and flame marks, making each piece an endlessly fascinating and distinctive product. It is an ideal gift and keepsake. The inspiration for these works comes from the rocky mountains of Shiding (northern part of Taiwan) and its lush vegetation. The artist, Hung Yue, through direct and intimate contact with the clay, creates works that possess immediate visual appeal, conveying a sense of simplicity and tranquility. In contrast to today's fast-paced digital life, the aim is to produce contemplative, emotional, and beautiful yet practical everyday items. Combining white and red clay, these pieces incorporate natural elements such as leaf veins, flower petals, and tree patterns, as well as Chinese calligraphy carvings. They are fired for 4 days and 3 nights at a high temperature of about 1280 degrees Celsius. Each piece embodies unique natural imagery, including falling ash, flame marks, and glaze variations. Hand-thrown pieces often exhibit irregularities and variations in shape, reflecting the artisanal and individualistic nature of the process. Due to many variables in the firing process, products may have small particles, rough or uneven surfaces and rims, which are common in wood-fired pottery.
