Things to Know Before Purchasing
The unique character of each piece is created by features not found in mass-produced items, 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]

Banko ware is a type of ceramic ware produced in Yokkaichi City, Mie Prefecture. It is known for its pottery pots, which are the number one product in Japan, and traditional teapots. Made from heat-resistant clay, many of the pots are suitable for use in microwaves and over open flames. They have excellent heat retention and insulation properties, allowing food to boil quickly and retain heat for a long time. The far-infrared effect ensures that food is cooked to a mellow finish.
