A wooden bowl handcrafted by Japanese craftsman Yusuke Tazawa. This piece is very unique as the lacquer used to coat the bowl is a combination of urushi and charcoal powder (using the makiji technique). Layering in this way creates a rougher surface texture, the colour has hints of silver and brown running throughout.
This combination is really quite beautiful, as the light hits this piece you see all the little bumps and flecks from the lacquer. It's unbelievable that this bowl is made of wood with its stunning form.

Japanese craftsman Yusuke Tazawa's philosophy is "simple design, quiet form". He hopes to make wooden tableware that blend in with daily life, objects that are forgotten once used but are fully functional when necessary. With a background in furniture making Yusuke's inspiration is nature itself, using the textures and tones found in the forest as a key element in to his work.
As a child Yusuke always took a strong interest in handicrafts, so as a student he specialised in Forest Science and Engineering. After working in conservation he took the plunge to convey the importance of the woodland and nature through his woodworking skills. He now works out of his studio named Think! Forest in Ebina, Kanagawa Prefecture and is well-known for producing special objects for the tea ceremony.
