Under the theme “Time”, created the collection of a series including a flower base called “saku”, and a lantern called “Andon 2019”. Both were carefully designed utilizing the techniques of spinning, spindling and polishing before plating and applying rust as a finishing touch. For the flower vase saku, its exterior represents past and future using a distinctive surface treatment. The user can feel the contrast of time when arranging flowers in the vase inspired by the hourglass. The concept of Andon 2019 is to enjoy the aging process similar to wine. A piece has been purposely left without plating in order to appreciate the changes that occur over time.
