Yakishime Unglazed Stoneware Dish (“Nasugata Yakishime Dish”) created by Satoru Hoshino
This yakishime stoneware dish is hand-formed and fired at high temperatures without glaze, allowing clay and fire to shape the surface naturally. The softly folded rim, reminiscent of an opening petal, introduces movement and quiet tension to the form, while the shallow interior reveals subtle tonal gradations created during firing.
Its surface remains matte and tactile, marked by fine granulation and minute mineral specks—evidence of material honesty rather than finish. The asymmetry is intentional, shaped by hand pressure and restraint, embodying a wabi-sabi sensibility where imperfection becomes presence.
Equally at home as a small serving bowl, meimeizara, or sculptural object, this piece bridges Japanese ceramic tradition and contemporary European minimalism. It invites slow use, close observation, and thoughtful placement within a refined interior or curated collection.
Each bowl is one of a kind.

Size: 1 ½” - 2 ½” (h) 4 ¾” x 3 ¾” (w) approximately

Minimalist, wabi-sabi aesthetic
Functional and decorative use
