Guy Matsuda Wood-Fired Vase - Wax Resist

Description (English)

This wood-fired stoneware vase by Guy Matsuda celebrates the quiet beauty of natural surfaces and subtle decoration. Wheel-thrown with a generous rounded form, it is finished in a warm shino glaze and embellished with delicate wax-resist leaf motifs that emerge softly through the glaze. The wood firing enriches the surface with gentle flashes, natural variation, and an earthy warmth that can only come from the kiln.

Its balanced proportions make it equally beautiful with a single stem, a small bouquet, or simply displayed on its own as a sculptural object. Thoughtful, understated, and deeply rooted in the traditions of functional pottery, it invites close attention and everyday appreciation.

Wheel-thrown stoneware with shino glaze and wax-resist leaf decoration, wood fired.
Approximately 5.5"H × 5.5" diameter at widest point, 2.75" base, 2" opening.

Guy Matsudaによるろくろ成形の石器製花器です。丸みを帯びたゆったりとしたフォルムに、温かみのある志野釉を施し、蝋抜き（ワックスレジスト）による葉の文様がやわらかく浮かび上がります。薪窯焼成ならではの自然な景色ややさしい窯変が加わり、土と炎が生み出す豊かな表情を楽しめます。

一輪の花から小さな花束まで美しく引き立て、そのまま飾っても静かな存在感を放つ作品です。控えめでありながら、使うほどに味わいが深まる花器です。
