Description :

An organically shaped porcelain vase featuring a soft white crackle glaze and concentric spiral embossing on the front. A striking gold repair runs vertically from the rim, executed in the style of Kintsugi—the Japanese art of honoring imperfections through gilded restoration. The asymmetrical form and surface texture lend the piece a sculptural presence, while the signed base confirms studio origin.

  • Material: Porcelain with crackle glaze and gold embellishment

  • Design Features: Embossed spiral motif; Kintsugi-style gold repair; asymmetrical silhouette

  • Signature: Artist marked/signed on base 

  • Condition: Excellent; intentional gold repair as part of design

  • Style: Studio pottery with wabi-sabi and contemporary craft influences

A poetic fusion of form and philosophy, this vase celebrates imperfection as beauty. Ideal for collectors of studio ceramics, Japanese-inspired decorative arts, or sculptural vessels with narrative depth.

Dimensions: H 7 in × W 5.5 in
