Yohen Tenmoku Sake Cup

Prix de vente$2,413.00 USD

Description

A fragment of the cosmos captured on clay, the Yohen Tenmoku Sake Cup embodies both history and mystery. Its deep, glossy surface shimmers with celestial patterns—iridescent halos and floating orbs that shift with the light, evoking an endless universe within its curved walls.

Tracing its origins back to a single kiln during the Southern Song dynasty in China over 800 years ago, yohen tenmoku was once lost to time, its creation long thought to be beyond reach. Master ceramicist Dobuchi Yoshiaki has painstakingly revived this glaze, the result of relentless experimentation and devotion to an art form that defies control.

The mesmerizing effect is born from carefully selected clay and a precisely mixed glaze, with layers meticulously controlled to create something ultimately left to chance. Fire and air shape each piece in unpredictable ways, forming a landscape of color and depth. As the gaze travels toward the base of the cup, a deepening glow emerges. Its brilliance unfolds under natural light, where reflection and scattered light reveal intricate details.

More than a vessel, it is a call from the past—reborn through the dedicated craftsmanship and perseverance of Dobuchi.
