A tasteful appearance
This bowl features a shinogi pattern. 
The contrast between the white decorative clay and the brown glaze is striking. The rough surface of the bowl exudes a gentle, rustic pottery flavor. 
The brown glaze's color is rich and varied, ranging from dark to light. The dotted iron powder and crazing patterns characteristic of powder-glazed pottery add a touch of character.
When you want a quick bite
Minced chicken and scrambled eggs on rice make a quick, small-bowl lunch. It's the perfect size for a light meal. 
It's delicious to serve salads or simmered dishes like piping hot meat and potatoes! It's stackable, so it's a good idea to have several on hand for family use or for guests.

| Recommended maintenance from the pottery maker | ・Immerse the vessel in hot or cold water before each use to moisten it before use. This will help prevent tea stains and other stains. ・Due to the characteristics of the material, the surface may be rough, or small protrusions may appear due to the expansion of stones contained in the clay. If this bothers you, polish it with waterproof sandpaper before use. |
| Product Characteristics/ Handling Precautions |
・When immersed in water, brown spots may appear, and the dark color of the base may be visible until it is completely dry. However, this is a natural characteristic of ceramic, so there is no need to worry. ・Ceramics are absorbent, so leaving them submerged in water can cause mold, stains, and odors. After use, wash off any dirt as soon as possible with dish soap or similar, rinse thoroughly, and dry to ensure long-lasting use. - Because each piece is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, size, and thickness. - Pinholes, pattern placement, and color may vary. - Recommended for those who appreciate the warm texture unique to handmade items, each with its own unique character. - Crazing (cracks in the surface glaze) may occur during use, but this is not a crack or damage and does not affect use. - Prices may be revised or adjusted by the artist or kiln. |
Things to Know Before Purchasing
The unique character of each piece is created by spots, fading, uneven glaze, shading, and shape variations not found in mass-produced items. The charm of handmade tableware lies in the fact that each piece has slight variations in color, size, and shape, and that no two pieces are exactly alike, with pinholes, crazing, and distortions. These are just some of the unique characteristics of handmade pottery, so enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter. [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 applied by hand, it may not be evenly distributed. During firing, temperatures vary depending on the firing area of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other Notes]
〇 Due to the nature of lacquered items, peeling of the decorative clay may occur with use, as shown in the photo.
〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery manufacturer or artist are inspected again before being delivered to customers.
