Beneath an Ancient Ginkgo is a sculptural ceramic basin from the For the Love of Trees collection. Inspired by the ginkgo—one of the oldest living tree species and a symbol of endurance across millions of years—this piece reflects the quiet resilience of ancient landscapes.
The interior surface carries impressions of ginkgo leaves, partially veiled beneath a crystalline jade glaze. Soft mineral greens bloom across the basin like filtered light beneath a forest canopy. Along the rim, irregular edges echo the weathered bark of an ancient trunk.
The exterior reveals dendritic markings and oxide washes that give the vessel an unearthed presence, as though discovered in the roots of a long-standing tree. Subtle shifts between matte and gloss create movement across the surface, allowing the piece to change gently with light.
This work invites a moment of stillness—an homage to deep time, endurance, and the quiet shelter of trees.
