Is this an expression of wabi and sabi?

Hand raised tea kettle, with a silver liner, 20cm high Yamada Sobi. 1871 ~ 1916.

I love this. Wabi sabi? Don't know. Seems both human made, and nature made. I love to think about this objects with this idea.
Looks a bit like bizenyaki, my favourite pottery.

Very subtle observation Lorenzo...it's a delicate balance, but how do we define it? we will see were we get to.
