Respect the trees and let their individuality guide you...
Otsuka enjoys and cherishes encountering the individuality of wood, and turns the lathe and creates pieces guided by that individuality.
This vase is made from maple and makes use of the chips and scars in the wood, creating a piece that respects the progress of the tree as it grows over the long years.
Maple is a wood that has been loved by many people since ancient times because of its unusual, irregular grain.
It has been highly valued as a flooring material due to its fine texture and excellent durability.
One of the charms of a vase made from the expressive grain of maple is that it can take on completely different atmospheres depending on the angle from which you view it and how the light hits it.
We hope you enjoy the beauty and unique special feeling.

Fascinated by the unique character and warmth of each piece of wood, he taught himself how to work with wood.

"When I create a piece, I am particularly conscious of checking the top and bottom.
If you make a mistake, you will be going against trees that have lived for decades or even centuries.
When I create, I always have a sense of gratitude towards the trees, and it's a constant process of trial and error to find the best way to bring out the unique characteristics of each individual tree."
