Things to Know Before Purchasing
The unique character of each piece of pottery is created by mottling, fading, uneven glaze, shading, and shape variations not found in mass-produced items. Handmade pottery is not perfectly uniform, with pinholes, crazing, or distortions. Each piece is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two pieces are exactly alike. This is the charm of handmade pottery. These are also the unique characteristics of handmade pottery, so enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter. [Individual Differences] 
Since each piece is hand-painted by artisans, there may be slight variations in the shading of the pattern. [Color Variations/Firing Variations] 
Since the glaze is carefully applied by hand, the glaze may not be evenly applied, resulting in uneven coloring. During firing, temperatures vary depending on the firing area of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other Notes]
〇Some pieces may have worn patterns or lines, or uneven glaze, as shown in the photo. 
〇Some items may have small black spots.
〇Items that have passed inspection by the potter or artist are inspected again before being delivered to customers.
