Kohiki Bud Vases by Toru Hatta. Each vase is made by hand and varies in size, shape and glaze.

Hatta's Kohiki range emanates from within - luminous surfaces that shift in the light are not only beautiful but speak to the importance of artistic and scientific ingenuity. Fired multiple times in both wood and gas kilns, this silica-saturated glaze is necessary to protect the iron-rich body from disintegrating at high temperatures.

Toru Hatta is a powerhouse ceramicist based near Osaka, Japan. His work is a contemporary fusion of Japanese, Korean and Chinese ceramic history, expert craftsmanship and a focus on the spiritual character of clay.

At DEA, we've been admiring and purchasing his work since our first foray to Japan in 2013, and we were fortunate enough to meet him at a Tokyo exhibition in March 2020. We are now excited to introduce his work to Australia.
