Japanese mini vase Hechimon 1

The name, Hechimon, is derived from the Japanese word used by the Shigaraki-yaki craftsmen for "windswept objects". The vessels are just like all shapes that nature creates and represent the individuality in each of us. Embracing various shapes and patterns that both nature and craftsmen bring about. Its name represents the craftsmen's playfulness and truthfulness to their products.
