Cavaliero Finn has been working with Mizuyo Yamashita since the gallery launched in 2004, shortly after the Japanese artist came to the UK. Over the years we have seen her work and reputation grow from strength to strength. This beautiful ‘Mentori’ vase is hand thrown on the wheel with a mix of terracotta and white stoneware, Mentori means faceted in Japanese and it describes the curved surface of this unique vase which Mizuyo makes with carving tools. This body of work is inspired by classical East Asian potteries. Handmade in the UK
