Mino mug pottery Minami kiln Mino ware

Tasteful texture

It's a large mug that can hold a lot. The calm colors and rustic atmosphere are attractive. You can feel the appropriate weight and feel stable. It has a slightly rough texture and a warmth that can only be found in earthenware. Each piece has slight individual differences in size, pattern placement, color, etc. That is also the charm of handmade work. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter, as no two items are the same.

Utensils that can be used in various situations

Brew coffee or tea and have a relaxing snack time. You can also enjoy plenty of sweet cafe au lait that you want to enjoy slowly. You can also serve soups such as minestrone or corn potage. It's also great as a dessert cup with plenty of shiratama dumplings in it. The warm atmosphere of earthenware means you can use it for a long time without getting tired of it.
