Katakuchi I (large) & II (small) are hand turned and chiselled pieces made from Cherry wood and in the style of spouted bowls traditionally used for serving sake.
South African Born Mark McGilvray and Kaori Takahashi from Japan both graduated Fine Art at the Wimbledon School of Art. Though they started making simple pieces for themselves, their craft has now happily become their livelihood. In their Devon studio, they combine time-honoured Japanese traditions honed in Tokyo with western techniques.
Together they plane, chisel, turn, wax and lacquer with great precision and attention to detail. Each considered piece celebrates the natural beauty of the material.
