Blue Sake Set by Lu Zhang

$120.00

Blue Sake Set (one jar + two cups) is a unique work by Lu Zhang brings together intimacy, tactility, and quiet elegance. Comprising one small sake jar and two accompanying cups, the set is unified by a rich blue glaze that shifts in tone—from deep, inky pools to lighter, mist-like washes—revealing the movement of fire and hand in the making. The forms feel grounded yet fluid, with softly rounded silhouettes that invite touch and use. Subtle variations in glaze and surface ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike. Designed for shared moments, the Blue Sake Set transforms the simple act of pouring and drinking into a contemplative, relational ritual.
