Ceramic 3D Printing
3D-printed Dehua white porcelain — interiors that work as both a vase and an LED light, in harmony with everyday living.
Dehua white porcelain, Fujian, China
The Dehua kiln in Fujian, China has produced white porcelain for over a thousand years and is renowned worldwide. Its exports were even called the “white porcelain beauty” and have been loved in Europe since ancient times. With its translucent whiteness and material refined over a long history, this porcelain is ideal both as a vessel for flowers and as lighting.
Not just to display — vessels that blend into daily life
Using Dehua clay, we explore a new form of ceramic expression with 3D ceramic printing. We aim for porcelain that is neither “craft” nor “industrial product,” but suited to modern living — interior pieces that work both as a vase and as an LED light, uniting “display” and “use.”
Why 3D printing?
- Precision and repeatability impossible by hand — producing delicate forms that flow continuously even on the inside.
- Firing, finishing and inspection are all done by hand, so no two pieces share the same expression.
- Designs were carefully selected with Japanese living spaces as the top priority.
Silent Ripple
サイレント・リップル
Even horizontal lines with the quiet regularity of ripples on water. When lit, shadows spread “like gentle ripples,” evoking calm and lingering resonance.
Whispering Clay
ウィスパリング・クレイ
Irregular and handcrafted, with a natural, poetic feel as if “the clay is speaking.” A nature-oriented model emphasising fluidity, softness and an organic impression.
Lattice Glow
ラティス・グロウ
A three-dimensional, regular and modern “Lattice + Glow.” Its shadows when lit are beautiful, echoing the feel of light through Japanese shoji screens.
Flow Veil
フロウ・ヴェール
A smooth flow of water — an orderly form that wears light like a “veil.” Soft and feminine, it pairs beautifully with Japanese interior décor.
Golden Drop
ゴールデン・ドロップ
Vertical flow, soft curves and a beautiful silhouette. When lit it appears like a “drop of light” — an elegant, refined presence.
Twilight Flame
トワイライト・フレイム
Dynamic, with strong light contrast — an art piece that stands on its own. The moment it is lit, flame-like shadows appear: a scene of “twilight × flame.”
