Takero Anzai creates planters with a distinctive character that balances the roughness and delicacy of clay, using wheel-throwing as his foundation and incorporating spontaneous carving to achieve textures such as the "mushikui" (worm-eaten) surface effect. He employs a range of firing techniques—iron glaze, white rust glaze, and carbonization firing—to produce a rich palette spanning golden yellows to deep blacks. He is also open to collaboration, as seen in his use of Yoshino Dorensha clay for a Bizen-ware-inspired approach, continually exploring new expressions that emerge from the interplay of materials, techniques, and makers.
