Carved from chestnut wood, this vessel features an upright, gently waisted silhouette with a flared base and a defined, straight-rimmed collar. The intense black finish is achieved through a traditional pad-staining technique, using a linen pouch to tamponeer Yasutomo ink across the surface, beautifully highlighting the raw, multi-toned texture of the wood. A distinctive, deeply textured knot dominates the lower body. Natural tension within the core fibers creates clean vertical splits that cut straight through the rim, honoring the ever-changing structure of nature.
