Description

The Kawa Series is crafted using an unusual, painstakingly refined technique unique to Luft Tanaka. Each creation begins as a simple sketch and transforms into a leather mold. After cutting, sewing, and preparing the mold for casting, liquid porcelain is poured inside, slowly forming a thin layer along the leather surface. Once the porcelain sets, the mold is carefully cut at the seams and gently peeled away, allowing the piece to be fired in a kiln.

Sold as a set of 2 vases. One of each size.

Vase 04: 3.5 x 3.5 x 6.5″ h / 8.9 x 8.9 x 16.5cm h
