Story

 

There is no obvious front to this vessel. 

Two curved forms fold around one another, creating an opening that changes with every step around it. The shape never settles into a single view, inviting the eye to keep moving.

Wood firing leaves much of the final surface beyond prediction. Ash, flame and atmosphere become collaborators in the making, leaving soft transitions of ivory, blush and charcoal that could not be repeated.

One of Wu Jingwen’s most sculptural works, Infinity Vase speaks through form rather than ornament. It is a vessel that feels quietly complete, holding stillness and movement in the same gesture.

 

*One-of-a-kind piece.

Care

Handle with care. Clean gently using a soft cloth and avoid abrasive materials. If used with fresh flowers, empty standing water regularly and allow the interior to dry thoroughly.

Wood firing and natural ash deposits create surfaces that cannot be repeated. Subtle variations and the gentle changes that come with time are part of the character of the work.

Meet the maker

Wu Jingwen works with raw stoneware, letting iron and wood-ash glazes bring out the clay's natural vitality.

“A thousand things shape a piece before it is finished—temperature, climate, humidity, time, the clay, and the glaze. I am only one factor among them: not someone who commands the material, but someone who discovers what is already there.”
