Shirasagi Woodworking Soup Bowl Black Sakura M | Lacquerware

Happiness of finding the “just right” soup bowl

The color of the lacquer gives this soup bowl an elegant impression. The wood is lightly painted with a matte black finish, creating a tasteful atmosphere. The slightly visible wood grain gives it a really nice flavor. It is the true craftsmanship that makes this wood grain look so beautiful. It is made using a technique called ``wipe lacquer,'' which involves repeatedly applying and wiping lacquer to allow the lacquer to soak into the wood. The chubby shape of the Shirasagi bowl fits comfortably in your hand, making it a great companion to your favorite bowls and plates.

Healed by careful handwork

A soup bowl for your morning miso soup. A cup of tea is an important source of energy for the day, so if possible, you want to pay attention to even the smallest details, such as the gentleness of the drink's texture and the way it feels when you wrap it in your hands. Wood not only doesn't get hot easily, but it also doesn't cool down easily, making it the perfect material for soup bowls! When you wrap your hands around a bowl of freshly made miso soup, you can feel the warmth coming through. Having a soup bowl that makes you feel relaxed just by holding it in your hand will enrich your daily life.

Recommended maintenance by the pottery	・Please refrain from soaking. ・If you wipe off the moisture as soon as possible after washing, you will be able to maintain its texture for a long time. ・Use of neutral detergent is allowed. ・Do not rub with hard objects such as scrubbing brushes. ・Please refrain from exposing it to water or sunlight for a long time.
Product characteristics/ Handling precautions	・As each item is handmade, each item may vary slightly in color, shape, size, thickness, etc., and there are individual differences. Textures such as wood grain and color are different. ・Recommended for those who want to enjoy the warm texture that is unique to handmade products, each with a different look. ・There may be lines or streaks, but they are formed when the surrounding fibers are pulled in the growth direction of the branch during the growth process of the tree, called branch nodes. Thank you for your understanding as this is not due to scratches or peeling of the lacquer, but rather due to the grain of natural wood. ・For coated items, the color will become slightly brighter. I hope you enjoy the changes over time. ・If you use it for many years, the lacquer may become thin or peel. In that case, please contact the manufacturer and they will repair the lacquer for a fee. ・Prices may be reviewed or revised depending on the artist or pottery.

About the style and atmosphere

Shirasagi bowls are made using a wood removal method called ``Tategi,'' which brings out the beautiful grain of the wood. Each bowl is carefully handcrafted using domestic cherry wood and will give you a gentle feeling when you hold it in your hand. They come in different sizes, so they're great for parent and child use or as gifts. There are dark, light, and mixed colors in terms of color and wood grain, but this is also a texture unique to natural materials, so please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as no two pieces are exactly the same. ■You can also view Shirasagi Woodworking's utensils here.
