Hidasuki hanging flower vase

This is a new *hidasuki* (fire-cord) hanging vase by Takeshi Kaneshige, marking a new chapter in his career following the milestone of building an anagama kiln in Kuku-i. The piece beautifully balances Takeshi’s characteristic meticulous craftsmanship, honed through patience, with the gentle presence of the *hidasuki* markings. The vibrant, warm *hidasuki* pattern, which looks as if it is blushing, is truly captivating and will surely accentuate the colors of any flowers placed within.
