# Bizen Ware Tokkuri / Vase (Mitsumi, Okayama – One-of-a-Kind Piece)

Hand-thrown in the Mitsumi「三角」 area of Kumamoto, Japan, this Bizen ware tokkuri captures the quiet depth of unglazed clay.  

**_Measuring 13 cm in height, 8.2 cm in width, and 3.6 cm across the mouth, it balances the form of a sake vessel with the grace of a flower vase._**

Fired for over ten days in a traditional wood-burning kiln, the piece bears natural ash deposits and subtle iron traces characteristic of the Mitsumi firing tradition.  
Every nuance of its surface — the earthen sheen, the faint fire shadows — emerged naturally from the kiln, not by glaze or pigment.

Whether used for warm sake in winter or as a quiet flower vessel, it reflects the Japanese _wabi-sabi_ spirit — beauty in stillness and impermanence.

A **one-of-a-kind,** preserved in its original condition, representing the harmony of earth, fire, and time.
