Here, that idea manifests in the highly organic aesthetic of artist Takumi Kudo's tableware, which draws the eye not through flash or opulence but through small details that can never be replicated, even by the original craftsman. Enjoy it daily as a practical expression of a time-honored philosophy or save it to plate a photo-worthy dish at your next dinner party.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\" data-mce-style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAbout South Kiln\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThough he got his start at his father's ceramics workshop, artist Takumi Kudo carved out a niche all his own under the South Kiln label, eventually earning his certification as a full-fledged craftsman in the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMino ware\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e tradition.
