{"product_id":"enso","title":"Ensō","description":"\u003cp\u003eA single hollow ring of clay, drawn like an \u003cem\u003eensō\u003c\/em\u003e — the circle brushed in one breath in Zen calligraphy. Near the top, a small opening is torn into the ring for a single stem, and beside it a trail of teardrop holes is pierced through the clay, as if the flower had just shaken off the rain. The ring rests on a small, hand-pressed foot, and is made to be shown on a wall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pale cream clay is swept with bold bands of persimmon orange — \u003cem\u003ehidasuki\u003c\/em\u003e, 'fire cords', left where rice straw was wrapped around the piece in the kiln. Around the opening and across the foot, wood ash melted into a clear, glassy sheen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnglazed Bizen stoneware, wood-fired in one continuous firing near Bizen, Okayama (GPS 34.7456°N, 134.1894°E). Its colour and markings are kiln transformation (yōhen) — the record of earth and flame in a single moment, not a pattern anyone chose. One of a kind, shaped by human hands, and impossible to reproduce. Traceable to the kiln that made it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 210 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 600 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFragile by nature and packed for the journey.
