Thors comment:
"I got this pentagonal, yes. Pentagonal cascade by Carina Jern, made in a brick red clay. It's one of her signature designs that has attracted attention in Japan. I immediately saw the tower in it and added a crest and sturdy feet. I oiled it before the photoshoot so expect it to dull a bit and lose its shine."
*Stamped with UTBY kiln and both of our stamps to mark me and Carina Jern's collaboration

THOR ABOUT THE EDITION - Ruins & Cherry Blossoms
"In early April, I made a pilgrimage walk between the monastery ruins in Varnhem all the way to the monastery in Gudhem. The path was lined with traces of my ancestors. The 5,000-year-old burial grounds at Ekornavallen, King Inge the Elder's 1,000-year-old grave at Hånger, the battlefields at Faris and the grassy ruins of the city of Sätuna. The raven followed me, but so did also the exuberant cherry trees in full bloom that lined my path. My fascination of the short-lived flowers of the fruit trees in contrast to the "eternal" stone monuments gave me the inspiration for this edition. And will continue to influence me for a long time to come."
