Jinnai Sakata — Spiral Ceramic Object
Mashiko Pottery, Japan
A small sculptural ceramic object attributed to Japanese ceramic artist Jinnai Sakata (坂田甚内).
Its distinctive hourglass-like silhouette is covered in repeated spiral motifs, creating a rhythmic surface that invites closer observation.
The earthy ceramic body carries subtle variations of charcoal black, ash gray, and warm reddish-brown, emphasizing the depth and texture of the fired clay.
Despite its compact size, the piece has a remarkably strong presence. Its balanced form and intricate surface make it an expressive standalone object for a shelf, desk, or carefully curated interior.
An intimate work of Japanese ceramic sculpture, where repetition, texture, and form come together.
