Exquisitely balanced design
Gosu lines on the white surface, and brown glaze accents on the edges. A rice bowl with a soft texture. 
The slightly smaller, elevated platform gives an exquisite balance of both softness and sharpness. The curves fit comfortably in your hand, making your everyday meals even more delicious. 
I want to serve a variety of rice
Not only glossy white rice, but also mixed grain rice and cooked rice look great. This is a rice bowl that you would want to choose as a companion for enjoying seasonal dishes such as chestnut rice and bean rice. 
Top the rice with butter and green onions, and add a little soy sauce... Green onion butter rice is also good. Egg-cooked rice, natto rice, and ochazuke are all smooth and smooth. I keep thinking of different types of rice, my imagination expands, and I get hungry.

Special ``powdered white products''
We work hard every day to create ``powdered white products'' that bring out the elegance and warmth of any dish. We are also particular about the soil we use, and use our own unique soil for potter's wheel and tatara molding. The dough is molded from red clay, coated with white mud, glazed and fired. To make it comfortable to use and microwave safe, it is not coated with any chemicals or liquid ceramics after firing. Instead, by repeating the firing process called ``honyaki'' twice, the product is made more durable and of a quality that can be used safely in daily life.
Thoughts on items
"The most important time in daily life" It's a time when families gather together to eat dinner and relax while drinking tea or coffee. In order to make that time more fulfilling, we strive to create pottery that can gently be a part of people's lives. “Powdered White” is a white with a gentle expression. It's a simple white that complements any dish and can be used every day. In addition, the gentle, rustic earthiness that appears beneath the surface of the pottery gives it a great depth of pottery. We would be most happy if you could use and enjoy the warmth of our Japanese tableware in your daily life.

What you need to know before purchasing
-The charm of handmade items lies in the fact that no two items are exactly alike, with pinholes, penetrations, distortions, and the like, and that the colors, size, and shape of each piece vary slightly from one to another.
-The coloring, size, and shape of each piece is slightly different, and the charm of handmade items lies in the fact that they are not exactly the same.
-The finish is relatively uniform, but because it is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, color, and so on. Uneven color/uneven firing Because the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. The firing process is also uneven because the temperature varies depending on the firing location in the kiln.
