giz’s black echoes the deep darkness of meok (墨), traditional ink. Subtle shifts in tone formed by delicate lines evoke the soft yet powerful gradations found in ink painting.
Across a surface that feels at once like stone and like paper, long, breath-drawn lines settle into the clay. As they layer and repeat, they create a refined and unfamiliar optical effect, a depth that seems to hover. A faint, permeating white grain emerges within the black, recalling the lingering afterimage of ink that remains even in silence.
The Mok (墨) series is unglazed on the exterior. Its surface is finished through polishing to achieve its final texture. Due to the nature of unglazed clay, contact with dark-colored liquids may leave marks or staining on the exterior surface. The interior is glazed, so using it with water is not an issue. Please review this carefully before purchasing.
In addition, to achieve the johwa technique in the Mok (墨) series, a thick layer of deep black slip is applied. As a result of this process, fine hairline cracks may occur within a range that does not affect use. This is considered a natural characteristic of the making process and is not a reason for exchange or refund. Please take this into consideration before purchasing.
