The artist utilizes the chemical reactions between wood-fired ash and glaze within the kiln to capture delicate, dynamic gradient colors akin to fine ash. This hue doesn't carry the weight of pure black; instead, it possesses a light, flowing texture, like mist. Enhanced by the crackled glaze, the layers appear even more profound. The horizontal "string" line decoration on the body serves as a deliberate visual anchor by the artist. It carves an elegant crease into the ash-like gradient, imbuing the form with upright tension amidst the soft, misty tones. With a practical capacity of 150ml and weighing just 119g, it showcases the artist's precise control over clay thickness and glaze weight. The spout pours like a pillar of water and cuts off cleanly, ensuring each pour of tea reflects a light, flowing posture, much like mist. ⸻ 【 Specifications 】 ・Craftsmanship: Wood-fired, ash gradient ・Material: Ceramic clay ・Dimensions: Approx. 7.5 x 7.3 x 7 cm ・Capacity: Approx. 150 ml ・Weight: Approx. 119 g ・Artist: Nick Lin ⸻ 【 Notes 】 ・This piece features natural gradient layers like ash, with color variations arising organically within the kiln. ・The surface is covered in fine crackle patterns, which will develop a deeper, more timeless aesthetic with nourishment from tea infusions. ・The surface may bear subtle marks of wood-fired ash, showcasing the authentic characteristics of handmade items and the firing process. ・The pour and cut-off have been specially calibrated by the artist, making it suitable for various tea ceremonies. ・To minimize environmental impact, shipments are packaged with recyclable paper and reused cartons, reducing plastic usage wherever possible.
