Bizen Ware Goma (Sesame) Straight Cylinder Type Nageire Flower Vase (Kaki)
Introducing a straight cylinder-shaped flower vase made of Bizen ware.
Bizen ware is a type of pottery produced in the area around Bizen City, Okayama Prefecture.
It is crafted through high-temperature firing using an oxidation flame without applying any glaze,
allowing one to fully appreciate the natural texture and character of the clay itself.
Due to the properties of the clay, Bizen ware flower vases are said to keep water from spoiling easily,
thus helping flowers last longer. Similarly, when used for tea cups or similar vessels, it is said to make the flavor of water or tea become smoother.
This flower vase features the “Goma” (sesame) firing technique.
“Goma” refers to the effect where, during firing, ash from the pine wood fuel adheres to the surface of the vessel,
melts, and creates a sesame seed-like appearance.
It is crafted by wheel-throwing with brown clay, and faint wheel marks can be seen on its surface.
Natural kiln changes caused by the goma effect appear in places, giving it a refined and tasteful texture.
The straight cylinder-shaped flower vase is also known as “Nageire,”
meaning flowers can be arranged simply by “tossing” them into the vase with relative ease.
At the same time, it is a flower vessel used by professional ikebana teachers,
making it suitable both for straightforward use and for expressing advanced floral arrangement techniques.
The subdued, rustic atmosphere of Bizen ware enhances the beauty of flowers,
and it pairs well with nearly any type of traditional Japanese flower.
It is a highly versatile vase, suitable both for home decor and for use in a tea room.

备前烧 芝麻釉 直筒型 投入式 花器(花瓶)
这是一款来自备前烧的直筒型花器的介绍。
备前烧是产自冈山县备前市周边地区的陶器,
在制作过程中完全不使用釉药,采用“氧化焰烧成”工艺,
经过高温烧结而成,能够充分感受到陶土本身的质朴风味。
由于备前烧的土质特性,用作花器时能防止水质腐坏,
使花卉更持久鲜活;用作茶杯等器皿时,据说能够使水或茶的口感更加醇和。
此花器采用了称为“芝麻釉”的烧制方式。
所谓芝麻釉,是指在烧成过程中,作为燃料的松木灰落在器物表面,
并在高温下熔化,形成犹如撒上芝麻般的独特斑纹。
本品以棕色陶土拉坯成型,
表面可隐约看到旋转成型时留下的纹路。
局部可见芝麻釉的窑变,增添了器物独特的风韵与质感。
直筒型花器又被称为“投入式”,
因其使用方法较为简便,可以直接将花材投入其中进行插花。
此外,此类花器也是专业的插花老师等人士常用的道具,
能够充分发挥高超的插花技艺。
备前烧那种质朴、寂静的氛围能很好地衬托花卉的美,
尤其适合日本传统花卉,几乎能与各种花材相得益彰。
无论是家庭使用还是在茶室中使用,
都是一款极具通用性的花器。
