TIGERS FACING EACH OTHER
A ceramic vase made by Sakura Tokiyama.
It has an atmosphere of being from an old era, yet with a modern impression. The lovely tigers are symmetrically arranged in a way that makes you think about their meaning. When you turn it over, you can see the beautiful marble pattern on the bottom. The small scratches on the surface has been repaired with gold, a technique called "Kintsugi".
