Zogan Bowl - Fusion of Porcelain and Walnut

Two contrasting materials brought together as one quiet geometric object.

The Zogan Bowl by Yoshiaki Ito combines the warmth of walnut with the refined surface of porcelain. Rather than treating wood and ceramic as separate elements, the design brings them together into a single composition.

The contrast between natural wood grain and clean porcelain creates a changing visual relationship from every angle, blurring the boundary between functional tableware and sculptural object.
