About the style and atmosphere

It has a simple appearance that you will never get tired of, making it easy to pair with any kind of food. Due to the crystallization of the glaze, the surface appears to sparkle if you look closely. Because each item is handmade, some items may look like the ones in the photo. Differences in color, uneven color, and sagging that occur by chance due to firing or hand-shaping create a unique texture unique to pottery.
