WY3 Soup Bowl Wakabayashi Yukie

Diameter 14cm

Height 7.5

Wakabayashi is skilled in both potter's wheel turning and carving.

In carving, he carves himself boldly and delicately.

The primary consideration for potter's wheel products is their simplicity and sturdiness as tableware, and their utility as tools for use in society.

I imagine that this is roughly what happens when there are differences in awareness due to differences in the way things are made.

This soup bowl was turned on a potter's wheel, which means that the focus is on the use of the tool.

This tool makes the most of lacquerware's selling points: it is light and conducts heat slowly.

Oden, pot-au-feu, soup, a single serving of boiled dumplings, stew... These are the dream vessels for holding all those hot liquid dishes.

The bottom is carved so you can hook your fingers and it is stable when you hold it in your hand.

If possible, we recommend using it with lacquered spoons or chopsticks.

After purchase, Wakabayashi will also repair and restore the item.
