Lot # 153 - View 3
Ray Key - Masur Birch Black Rim Enclosed Vessel. This is a one piece turning, the top is not set in as many think. Size: 5-1/2" high x 4-1/2" diameter. Opening: 7/8" diameter. Weight: 7ounces. Ray embraces the minimalist approach. His design bywords are keep it simple stupid, let the wood speak for itself, if in doubt leave it out. Herbert Ypma in his book London Minimum decreed Ray's work had achieved Wabi. The work must be pure - in form, material and execution for this Japanese word meaning 'voluntary poverty' to be applied.
