The Nozomu is a heart-shaped raku vase with a flattened surface, a narrow mouth and a smaller base. Its soft curves and textured finish bring a soothing feel, along with shape and dimension, to a living room, home office or entryway display. Those qualities make it a gentle, meaningful choice for Malaysian gifts and corporate gifts.
Style it with dried flowers or let it stand alone as a decorative piece.
One firing, one result
Raku firing pulls the Nozomu from an extremely hot kiln while it is still red-hot, then seals it in a reduction chamber of sawdust or paper. The material catches fire against the hot clay, and that reaction leaves each vase with colours and patterns of its own.
