This small cup-like vessel is crafted in smooth white ceramic, with the design of birch trees in winter worked directly into its textured surface. The raised relief of the slender trunks wraps around the sides, their characteristic bark markings etched or carved to give a tactile quality. Against the white glaze, the texture suggests snow-laden stillness, as if the trees emerge quietly from a winter landscape. The subtle shadows cast by the relief add depth, making the birch trees feel lifelike while keeping the overall design minimal and serene. Both functional and artistic, the vessel captures the quiet beauty of a snowy woodland scene in a form that invites touch as much as sight.
