Youyou Wang 'Lidded Jar IV'
Dimensions - W10cm x H9cm
Materials - White stoneware, matt white glaze
Care - Water-tight, gently hand-wash
Description
Formed in white stoneware and finished with a matt white glaze, this series emphasises clarity of form and material. The surface settles into a soft, stone-like finish that allows light to move gently across each piece.
The silhouettes combine measured curves with clean, defined lines. Rounded volumes meet precise edges, creating forms that feel both deliberate and restrained. Within this quiet palette, the work moves between modern reduction and the enduring language of classical ceramic form.
