This tall vase draws the eye, with an added animal motif near the mouth of the vase for a unique character trait. The crackle effect plays well with the structure of bark and branches, giving you room to experiment with arrangements.

You can see the unique expression of the soil used to form the clay on the inside, and Gaku Nakane’s signature crackle effect on the outside.

Gaku Nakane

Gaku Nakane, the 26-year-old potter, was raised by artisan parents in the idyllic countryside of Shiga prefecture.

A striking cliff and boundless forest are the scenes from his childhood. Playing amongst the natural environment as a child, and observing the textures of trees, surfaces of rocks, and other materials that have withstood the test of time, have shaped his own artistic identity - one that is whimsical yet bold.

Each of his pottery pieces is made by layering two types of clay. When firing, the discrepancy in shrinkage between the two layers creates a unique crackled pattern on each vessel and sculpture. Gaku hopes to bring warmth and charm to homes near and far through his work.
