{"product_id":"hmr-e4-078","title":"Haga Minoru: Hibi Silver Flower Vase","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese are works by Minoru Haga, who produces pottery in Sera Town, Hiroshima Prefecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMr. Haga studied Mino ware in Gifu, a pottery production area. He then worked as a potter while working at an automobile factory, but to devote himself to his creative activities, he opened a studio in Sera Town, close to his hometown of Fuchu City, in 2010.\u003cbr\u003eHis works simultaneously encompass two opposing impressions: a dynamic, inorganic impression that evokes the beauty and harshness of nature, and a slightly human softness that adds to simple forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \"Ume-yaki\" (buried firing) technique is a unique method that involves bisque firing, then glazing and firing in a kiln, and then re-firing in a wood-fired kiln after burying the pieces in firewood.\u003cbr\u003eThis method has a very high chance of failure, but it results in ceramics with complex expressions, which is why Mr. Haga enthusiastically dedicates himself to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Hakuhaku\" (peeled white) is a new endeavor that uses white glaze but includes a process of intentionally peeling off the glaze, deliberately bringing out a decayed texture.\u003cbr\u003eThe price range is affordable, and the simple color tones enhance the food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Kurogin\" (black silver) is a silver technique that offers a glimpse of the rough texture of the clay.\u003cbr\u003eThe glare is suppressed, creating a work where a metallic texture and the black of the earth are beautifully harmonized with the clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMr. Haga very sincerely presents the inherent irreversibility of pottery making.\u003cbr\u003eWhat lies there is not a simple contrast between destruction and regeneration, but an attitude of confronting \"irretrievability\" itself.\u003cbr\u003eWe hope you will enjoy Mr. Haga, who skillfully uses various techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e■ Size: Diameter 13cm, Height 28.5cm\u003cbr\u003e■ Weight: Approx. 1600g\u003cbr\u003e■ Microwave: × \/ Dishwasher: × \/ Oven: ×\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e*Mr. Haga values serendipity in his works, so there is significant individual variation.\u003cbr\u003eThe photos are generally of the same size, but each piece has different patterns and subtle sizes, so please consider them as examples.\u003cbr\u003e\"Ume-yaki\" has a stronger random nature than \"Hakuhaku.\" We appreciate your understanding in advance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cMinoru Haga\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1983 Born in Fuchu City, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003cbr\u003e2008 Completed Tajimi City Pottery Design and Technical Center, received Graduation Project Award\u003cbr\u003e2012 24th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 5th Contemporary Tea Ceremony Exhibition, TOKI Oribe Encouragement Award\u003cbr\u003e2013 25th Toki City Oribe Day Commemorative Event, 6th Contemporary Tea Ceremony Exhibition, Selected\u003cbr\u003e2014 Built a wood-fired kiln in Sera Town, Sera District, Hiroshima Prefecture\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"芳賀稔","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51024610951453,"sku":"HMR-E4-078","price":165000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/5310\/3645\/files\/HMR-E4-078-2_cddc58ca-4625-41ad-a6bb-99bed0fe5a43.jpg?v=1773131519","url":"https:\/\/osakamaholo.pro\/en\/products\/hmr-e4-078","provider":"うつわ屋まほろ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
