Kanagawa-based ceramic artist Takashi Endo takes his creative inspiration from a diverse group of architects, designers, and musicians. The self-taught potter's work is characterized by thinness, lightweight rigid forms, rough textures, and monochromatic tones.
Through his ceramic forms, Endo explores notions of fragility, durability, and Ensō, the Zen interpretation of the circle. Endo works with a combination of porous clays, most notably purion clay sourced from the Iga and Shigaraki regions, part of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan. After a reduction firing method followed by cold reduction, purion clay reveals natural artifacts within such as feldspar and other minerals.
If stacked, bowls should be handled with care due to their thin and light properties.
Size and color may vary slightly as each piece is hand-thrown and hand-glazed.
Sold individually.

Based in the Kanagawa prefecture of Japan, ceramic artist Takashi Endo presents organic textures in the shape of incredibly lightweight ceramics. Through his ceramic forms, Endo explores notions of fragility, durability, and Ensō, the Zen interpretation of the circle. With a self-taught practice spanning decades, Endo works with a combination of porous clays, most notably purion clay sourced from the Iga and Shigaraki regions, part of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan. After a reduction firing method followed by cold reduction, purion clay reveals natural artifacts within such as feldspar and other minerals. Endo intentionally presents these organic textures, finishing pieces in a raw, monochromatic palette to express the true nature of the clay.
