Each fine, organic \"firework\" swirls its own dance, creating waves of movement in both interior and exterior of the tumbler. A low-sheen surface means you can fully appreciate the details.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs each Nerikomi piece is a slice of pattern retrieved from a larger block of clay, no two cups are alike. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMr. Nagae is a master of subtle refinement in his \u003cem\u003eNerikomi\u003c\/em\u003e practice. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eVery few Nerikomi artisans embed his level of care into their craftsmanship as pressure to put works onto the market at speed is high.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003eThe intricate nature of the Nerikomi technique can get visually intense at times but Nagae has mastered an ethereal balance between every pattern's density and delicacy. \u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNerikomi is often compared to the same technique that makes \u003cem\u003eKintaro candy\u003c\/em\u003e. Stained clays are laminated, cut, and assembled into individual pattern units before being carefully combined into large blocks. The pattern we see on ceramic forms are in fact cross-sections of these blocks. It is a technique that requires significant forethought, care and patience for weeks of drying, as cracks easily form during many stages of the process. Clarity in patterns are achieved with sanding and polishing dried greenware.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Susurri","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57746267832584,"sku":null,"price":110.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1038\/4628\/1480\/files\/nerikomi_nagae_side1_2620_cover.png?v=1777408950"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.susurrishop.com\/collections\/tetsuo-nagae.oembed","provider":"Susurri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
