This basin, shaped by Minako Sakurai’s gentle, warm hands, weaves modern sensibilities with a quiet nod to antiquity and vintage charm. Each piece is carefully fired—one at a time—in a kiln nestled in the fresh mountain air, emerging with a unique, luminous presence the moment it is complete. A true reflection of her spirit—calm, sincere, and quietly strong—this basin is versatile in its use, whether as a serving bowl, an ikebana vase, or a decorative centerpiece.
As each item is handmade, slight variations in size and color may occur. We hope you’ll embrace these nuances as part of the beauty and character of handcrafted work. Please note that colors may appear slightly different depending on your device or viewing environment.
