#4 Potbelly Vase in Indigo

5.3" H x 4.9" W

This robust vase features an oval shaped rim—a new design for this year—decorated with bright yellow slip. The body is carved with lines accentuating the round form. The blue slip on the surface interacts with the clay to create a rustic surface. The shinogi—a traditional Japanese decorative technique—are carved carefully by hand into the surface of the piece. After bisque firing Akio applies colored slips and then glazes the pieces with translucent matte glaze. Beautiful to see and incredible to hold.

In 2009, Akio traveled overseas for the first time to exhibit and share his pottery with a new audience at the Heath LA showroom. Since that show, Akio has brought new work to Heath every year, and the friendship that’s formed along the way is as soulful and alive as the objects themselves.
