素材のもつ美しさを十分に引き出すのは、職人の使命です。がしかし金属工芸品の本当の良さは、完成品を見た限りでは判りません。その器の命は限りなく、数十年、数百年と生きつづけ、うちに纏う変化をも取り込み自の美とするでしょう。私共は、その時間軸をも計算したモノヅクリを続けています。

It is the responsibility of the craftsman to bring out the beauty of the material. However the full potential of metalwork cannot be understood by simply looking at the finished product. The object will live on for hundreds of years, and the changes it goes through during that time will gradually reveal its true beauty. We continue to make products which have this awareness of time.
