2 pieces set ・Sake cup with Teal and white sand beach ・Japanese tea cup ・Cylindrical ・Kiln deterioration level 3

Yōhen (*1) pottery with a cute cylindrical shape that fits in the palm of your hand "Izu Shirahama Yaki" shochu cups, sake cups, tea cups, and sake cups. It is ground on a potter's wheel and sharpened with a plane to give it a sculptural finish. Anyone can bake in a wood-fired kiln. Everyone is unable to manipulate hi to draw out the potential of the soil and create a "scenery" consisting of "sesame", "scarlet", "sankiri", "vidro" and "burnt". Hokekyoan continues to take on the challenge of this difficult task. The level of kiln change is ★3. Each one has a different texture, but they have 3 out of 5 kiln transformation elements. I will deliver two of the items in the same atmosphere in the photo. ■■ Thoughts on this style ■■ Ever since I was a child, I have longed for the "southern seas" such as Hawaii and Okinawa. Even now, I long to move to places with beautiful seas such as “Tahiti”, “Palau”, “Kenting” in Taiwan, “Phuket Island” in Thailand, and “Cebu Island” in the Philippines. When I was 22 years old and lived in Tokyo, I traveled with some friends to Shizuoka Prefecture, where "Mt. Fuji" is located. About two and a half hours from Tokyo on the Odoriko express train, I was surprised and moved to find the Teal sea that I had dreamed of since I was a child. At the age of 35, when I started making pottery, I visited this sea again, and tried to “reproduce” the excitement of that time by copying it into “pottery”. ■■Yohen = Allowance of chance=Natural style■■ "Elements of the tropical sea" shallow sandy beaches, white sandy beaches, foamy beaches, Teal waves. The dazzling sun, this is a pottery that tries to reproduce these elements in a limited modeling space called "vessel". In terms of traditional Japanese pottery styles, it refers to ``sesame'', ``scarlet'', ``sankiri'', ``vidro'', and ``charred''. . ■■ Wabi Sabi = Growing up = Aging ■■ Japan's climate and climate are high in humidity and not ideal for "things". Sen no Rikyu's "Wabi-Sabi" is the answer to such a bad situation, which he nurtured with his wise worldview. All things will decay and return to the earth. Putting ourselves in this world for a while, how we "exist" in the world reflects our "mind" in dealing with things. The work we delivered is an "unfinished living pottery" whose cracks (penetration) and dirt (plum blossom skin) seeps in the more it is used, and which is used and maintained to create a tasteful atmosphere. * In Japan, there is an evaluation that things are “tasteful”. The original meaning of this alludes to the "personality of the user" of "how it was used" and "how it was raised". Touch the heart of "Wabi-Sabi", which transforms even the contradictory concept of "be clean and dirty" into beauty, and complete it with your own hands to create a special gem just for you. ■■ “Management innovation” promoted by “Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry” ■■ Hokekyoan's pottery has been certified as a "management innovation" promoted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan. I use a unique technique called "pointillism hanging" and "extreme reduction oxidation removal". This "title" is given to "techniques and techniques" rather than "things". ■■Product standards and manufacturing methods■■ Material Pond bottom soil + Shirahama sand = original blended soil Technique Tebineri pottery ball making Size about 6 cm in diameter x 6 cm in height Weight about 80 grams Capacity about 80cc Yohen Level ★★★☆☆ ■■Explanation of kiln transformation level■■ There is no same thing as one, and although it is my subjectivity, it represents the atmosphere of the kiln transformation level.

Even with the same baking, each one has a different personality. It is said that uncalculated and unexpected factors, such as the location in the kiln, the season, atmospheric pressure, soil and fire, and other mysterious chemical changes caused by coincidence, result in the creation of a piece of art. The spirit of craftsmanship, which allows for chance, is gaining recognition and admiration for its style reminiscent of the mountains and rivers of nature.
