The daily life of ordinary people is filled with objects, common things used in ordinary contexts. These objects are our permanent companions in life.
In this regard, writes Soetsu Yanagi, they should be made with care and designed to last, treated with respect and even affection. They must be natural and simple, robust and safe - the aesthetic result of fully satisfying utilitarian needs. In short, they should be objects of beauty.
At a time when machine-made objects are weak and ugly, these essays invite us to deepen and transform our relationship with the objects around us. Inspired by the work of the simple and humble craftsmen Yanagi met during his lifelong travels in Japan and Korea, they provide a heartfelt defense of modest, honest, and handmade objects, whether they are traditional tea cups, jars, textiles, or paper.
