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] 
Because each piece is handmade, there will be individual differences in shape, size, and thickness. [Color Variations/Firing Variations]
