The vessel is slightly tapered and hand-shaped, its surface alive with shifting glazes that merge in unpredictable rhythms. Deep green Oribe glaze flows from the rim, meeting passages of rusty orange, sandy ochre and iron-rich black. Calligraphic markings appear across the body, adding a graphic intensity that heightens the sense of movement.
