momoco bird [Teppei Ono / Kinrande Dots (Pink)] with mini bird

“momoco” — porcelain figures in Arita ware. They express the craftsmanship of Arita ware, handed down for more than 400 years, and an endless pursuit of beauty, in special collaborations with Arita's finest makers. The little bird, a messenger of good news, stands for happiness and peace. Birds living in pairs symbolise a happy marriage, and their flight makes them a popular gift for new beginnings. Shaped after a plump, lovable fledgling about to leave the nest. A work by artist Teppei Ono. After the base colour is overglaze-painted, the pattern is drawn in lacquer and gold leaf is applied over it. The hand-drawn, slightly irregular dots and the fine lustre of gold leaf blend softly into any interior. Finished with care down to the base. At Ono's suggestion, a tiny hand-pinched mini momoco bird comes with this piece. Each piece is handmade, so dot size and placement vary. Gold leaf may wear or change colour over time. ■ Teppei Ono: known for bold expression with traditional gold-leaf techniques. Born in Ureshino, Saga. Graduated from Saga Prefectural Arita College of Ceramics (1995) and its research course (1996), then worked at a kiln in Hasami. Independent since 2004; making ceramics at Kohaku Togeisha since 2014. Delivered in a dedicated box. For large orders for gifts or campaigns, please contact BloomSource.
