Insufficient drying may cause mold and odors. - For stains such as tea stains, please use commercially available bleach and rinse thoroughly. |

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. Iron spots appear on the surface as black spots when the iron contained in the clay is fired in the kiln. In addition, since pottery is absorbent and tends to leave stains, we recommend sealing(MEDOME) it before use. Most water stains disappear when dry, but if used without sealing, oil stains and stains from dark colors such as soy sauce and coffee tend to remain. One of the charms pottery(earthware) is that they tend to change with daily use. Please enjoy the expressions at that time and make it your own.

Shigaraki ware
This ceramic is produced around Shigaraki-cho, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture, and is one of the six oldest kilns in Japan. The rustic texture of the earth is appealing, making full use of the richness of nature. Because they use strong china clay, they are good at making large pottery like raccoon dog ornaments.
