Description
Fresh from the September 2025 firing, this piece embodies Mr. Takariki’s fearless, fire-forward approach that draws out the clay’s character—an exceptional result that leans decisively toward the “firing” side of Bizen’s dialectic of clay and flame.
A black ash-deposit kiln variation blankets the surface like cooled lava; in places the body has carbonized, developing a subtle, dark steel-silver sheen that showcases the intensity of the firing. At the front, a “nuke” window reveals tightly sintered, hard clay color, with a faint whisper of scarlet clay color remaining—allowing you to enjoy both the drama of the surface and a quiet softness beneath.
The vigorous firing also sharpened the boundary between the clay color and the kiln-variation; along this crisp divide a delicate golden iridescence emerges, evoking the feel of a rainbow arch.
