Tasteful appearance
A shallow bowl with a shinogi pattern. 
The greenish-brown color, like fallen autumn leaves, gives it a very cool and cool atmosphere. The light and shade created by the flow of the glaze and the brown burnt marks create a unique expression in a simple style. Although it is made of porcelain, it has a clay-like texture and has a warm feel to it. 
Not only for meals but also for snack time
It's the perfect size for serving side dishes for one person, such as boiled pumpkin or spinach with sesame sauce. It has just the right amount of depth, so it's great for juicy dishes such as dipping green vegetables and vinegared dishes. It's great not only with Japanese food, but also with Western-style side dishes such as German potatoes and marinated tomatoes. 
It's perfect as a dessert bowl, topped with vanilla ice cream topped with brown sugar syrup and warabi mochi. You can also stack them, so it's a good idea to have one for your family and for guests.

Things you should know before purchasing
What creates the expression of a pottery are spots, scratches, unevenness in the glaze, shading, and bending of the shape that cannot be seen in mass-produced products. The charm of handmade pottery is that it may have pinholes, intrusions, distortions, etc., and is not perfectly arranged, but each one is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two are exactly the same. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. 【Individual difference】 
Because each item is handmade, there may be individual differences in shape, size, thickness, color, etc. [Uneven color/uneven baking] 
Because the glaze is carefully applied one by one by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly, resulting in uneven color. During firing, the temperature varies depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other notes] 〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery and artist are inspected again and delivered to the customer.
