Things to Know Before Purchasing
The unique character of items is created by features not found in mass-produced products, such as spots, fading, uneven glaze, shading, and shape warping. The charm of handmade pottery lies in the fact that each piece is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and that they are not perfectly uniform. There are pinholes, crazing, or distortions. Enjoy the unique qualities of handmade pottery, a once-in-a-lifetime experience. [Individual Differences] 
Because each piece is handmade, there will be individual differences in shape, size, thickness, etc. [Color Variations/Firing Variations] 
Since the glaze is carefully applied by hand, the application may not be uniform. During firing, temperatures vary depending on the firing area of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other Notes]
〇Due to the multiple layers of glaze applied, some pieces may have cracks, but this does not affect their use.
〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery manufacturer or artist are inspected again before being delivered to customers.
