Using
a group of photos that I had taken a while back, I assembled this slideshow
video of a classic and well fired Oni-Shino hanging vase by Tsukigata Nahiko.
There is a wide variety of surface elements to be seen on this piece from a
rich interplay of iron and Shino to the effects created from the natural ash
that has painted the surface of the vase.
The gourd form is highlighted by a strong form, visible throwing marks
and two carved areas on the front of the pot, top and bottom. I have written
about this vase in two previous blog posts regarding Tsukigata and hope the
third time is the charm.
