{"product_id":"hanging-seed","title":"Hanging Seed","description":"\u003cp\u003eA small, egg-shaped vase made to hang on a wall. Near the top, a shallow hollow is pierced with a cluster of holes — one larger opening for a stem and smaller ones around it — so a single flower, a sprig of grass or a few twigs can be arranged in more than one way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pale sand clay is swept with soft flushes of persimmon-orange \u003cem\u003ehidasuki\u003c\/em\u003e — 'fire cords' — where rice straw lay against it in the kiln, with a single fine line of flame running down from the opening like a stem. It hangs from a brass ring on a short, hand-bound cord set into the back.\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\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 124 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 89 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMain opening:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 300 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFragile by nature and packed for the journey.
