Toshiko Ochiai : ceramic bowl

$88.00

The softly squared shape and uneven rims of these bowls are part of the pleasure of pottery made by hand. Toshiko Ochiai makes each piece in Mashiko, where she fires her pottery with wood over several days and nights.

Their depth makes them useful for noodles or a salad to share, and they’re lovely to keep filled with fruit on the kitchen table.

Each bowl is sold individually.

Ceramic. Hand washing recommended. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.

A and B: 18.5 × 6 cm.

Toshiko Ochiai established her own kiln in Mashiko in 1979, after studying ceramics at Musashino Art University and training with local potters. Working among the wooded hills, she fires her pottery in traditional wood-burning kilns over several days and nights. She hopes each piece will enrich everyday life and carry something of “the pulse of the earth and flame” into the home.
