Yakishime Unglazed Stoneware Large Bowl (“Ginsai Maru Yakishime”) created by Satoru Hoshino
This large yakishime stoneware bowl embodies quiet strength and refined imperfection. Hand-formed and fired at high temperatures without glaze, its surface reveals the natural transformation of clay through fire. Subtle ash markings, mineral speckling, and tonal variations emerge organically, creating a restrained yet deeply expressive interior.
The bowl’s gently irregular rim and softly undulating form reflect a wabi-sabi sensibility—where beauty is found in asymmetry, texture, and material honesty. The exterior retains an earthy warmth, while the interior surface carries delicate, almost lunar markings shaped by chance rather than control.
Both sculptural and functional, this piece works seamlessly as a centerpiece, serving bowl, or contemplative object within a modern interior. It speaks quietly, yet with presence—an object shaped by time, fire, and restraint.
Details:
Unglazed, high-fired stoneware (yakishime)
Size: 3 ½” (h) diameter 10 ½” approximately
Natural ash effects; each piece is one of a kind
Minimalist, wabi-sabi aesthetic
Functional and decorative use
