Yuki Abe - HIE Earrings - Square Diagonal Stripes

These are works by Yuuki Abe, a ceramic artist who creates pottery in Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture.

Ms. Abe values "the interesting shapes, textures, and patterns that the clay creates on its own." She primarily produces two series: "Tetsue," which features patterns drawn with iron-containing pigments, and "Hie," which depicts patterns using cracks in white slip.

Having previously worked in architecture, many of her pieces feature very modern designs, and she also focuses on creating textures that evoke the natural feel unique to ceramics.

■Size: 27mm × 7mm × 3mm thick (excluding metal fittings)
■Weight: Approximately 2g (per piece)
■Texture: Matte

*Due to being handmade, there may be slight individual differences in size, color, and weight.
