Mishima Rice Bowl by Toru Hatta.
In Hatta's Mishima works, bamboo or iron tools are used to carve intricate patterns which are then inlayed with slip and wiped back. It is a cumulative process that requires immense skill and patience, one where the hand of the maker is ever present and never replicable.
