Hideyuki Fujisawa
Gold Tenmoku Lacquer Tea Bowl [Set] 黄金天目茶椀, 2025
Urushi lacquer, Zelkova elm, gold leaf
Hideyuki Fujisawa (b. 1972) studied lacquer at Lacquer Kosha. His work aims to perfect a lacquer version of the Yuteki Tenmoku Tea Bowl. His transformative use of traditional lacquer materials explores the use of brushing pure layers of lacquer over a carved wooden surface. Fujisawa strategically and meticulously places mother of pearl on the lacquer tea bowls, adding a touch of elegance and refinement.
