material. As you use it, the color will gradually deepens, so you can enjoy the changes as well.

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 differences]
Because each piece is handmade, there are individual differences in shape, size, thickness, and pattern. [Uneven
color/uneven baking]
Since the glaze is applied by hand, the glaze may not be applied evenly. During firing, the temperature varies
depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other notes]
〇There may be some areas where the glaze is not applied.
〇Some items have noticeable dripping of glaze, as shown in the photo.
〇Products that have passed inspection by
the pottery and artist are inspected again and delivered to the customer.
