Fuyu Collection

The Fuyu ceramic collection draws its inspiration from the winter season in Japan, where "Fuyu" means "winter" in Japanese. So I created a collection that captures the essence and aesthetic of this particular season.

The main distinctive aspect of the Fuyu collection is the black enamel layered with touches of blue. Black oil drop glaze is applied to the ceramic, and in places, accents of rutile blue are added. This combination creates a symbiosis between the elegance of black and the freshness of blue, thus evoking the atmosphere of Japanese winter.

The areas where black glaze and rutile blue meet on the ceramic are reminiscent of the winter landscapes of Japan. Black enamel often depicts the silhouettes of bare trees in the snow, while touches of blue evoke ice and the cold waters of frozen rivers and lakes. This juxtaposition of colors and textures creates a unique and poetic atmosphere in each piece of the Fuyu collection.

Whether bowls, plates, cups or vases, each piece in the Fuyu collection is an artistic interpretation of Japanese winter. I bring my sensitivity here to capture the fleeting beauty of this season and transmit it through ceramics.
