Tasteful appearance
A rocks glass 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.
I want to use it in various scenes
It has a moderate thickness and weight, so it is extremely stable. The wide spout makes it easy to add ice, making it
perfect for enjoying fruit liquors and shochu on the rocks.
Pour yourself a cup of coffee or green tea and take a leisurely break. It would also be great to make a soup cup with
lots of minestrone. I love that you can enjoy a variety of dishes depending on how you use it.

Things you should know before purchasing
What creates the expression of 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 applied by hand, it may not be applied evenly, resulting in uneven coloring. 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.
