Turned from reclaimed cedar and finished using the traditional Japanese technique of Yakisugi, this vessel explores the relationship between fire, material, and form.
The controlled charring process deepens the character of the wood, revealing a rich surface of black tones and warm brown undertones that shift subtly with the light. Rather than conceal the nature of the cedar, the finish highlights its texture and individuality.
Modest in scale, the piece is intended as a quiet presence within a room. Accompanied by dried flowers, it functions as a small vessel that brings warmth, contrast, and material richness to a shelf, desk, or table.
Each piece is shaped and finished by hand, preserving the unique qualities of the wood from which it was made.
