Tobe Ware Soretumon Blue-White Porcelain Vase, Natsume Shape
Introducing a blue-white porcelain flower vase from Tobe Ware.
The vase has an oval shape resembling the fruit of the natsume (jujube) plant, which is why it is called the “Natsume Shape.”
Though it is vertically elongated, the vase has a gentle curve that clearly distinguishes it from a typical cylindrical shape, giving it a soft and graceful appearance.
This vase is versatile and can be used both as a regular flower vase and for “nageire” (a style of flower arrangement where the stems are placed loosely in the vase). It is a classic shape commonly used in the Japanese art of flower arrangement (ikebana).
The shape of the vase allows flowers to be arranged neatly and easily.
The base of the vase is made from blue-white porcelain, a material of high status that enhances the beauty of the flowers and provides a striking, elegant color.
A distinct design feature is that the glaze on a certain part of the vase, slightly above the center, intentionally cracks, creating a unique visual effect. Although the cracks are intentional, each one is different, irregular, and uneven, giving each vase its own personality and a fascinating texture.
The cracked areas are covered with a transparent glaze, ensuring that no water or dirt can seep in.
The high-temperature firing process makes the vase more durable and less prone to breaking compared to earthenware.
Simple in design yet full of character, this vase showcases the intriguing qualities of ceramic craftsmanship, making it a timeless and long-lasting piece.

砥部烧 苍裂纹 青白瓷 花瓶 枸杞形
这是来自砥部烧的青白瓷花器介绍。
该花瓶呈现出类似植物枸杞果实的椭圆形，因此被称为“枸杞型”。
它虽然是纵向设计，但有着缓慢的膨胀，明显不同于直筒型，整体呈现出一种柔和的氛围。
无论作为普通花瓶还是用于“投插”，都非常适用，是花道中常见的经典形状。
这种形状非常适合整理花卉，花卉也容易插入且保持整齐。
花器的底座为青白瓷，因此具有很高的格调，能够很好地衬托花卉，色彩非常美丽。
花器中央稍上的部分，表面的釉料故意呈现裂纹状态，这成为了设计的一部分。
虽然是故意设计的，但裂纹的形态各不相同，裂纹的分布不均且不规则，因此每一件花器都拥有独特的个性，形成一种非常有趣的氛围。
裂开的部分上方覆盖有透明釉料，因此裂纹中不会渗入水分或污渍。
由于采用高温烧制，花器的烧制工艺非常坚固，与土器相比更加耐用，不易破裂。
它的设计简洁，但充满了陶艺的魅力，既不容易厌倦，又能长期使用，是一款非常耐看的花器。
