Things to Know Before Purchasing
The unique character of each piece of pottery is created by features not found in mass-produced items, such as spots, fading, uneven glaze, shading, and shape variations. Handmade pottery is not perfectly uniform, with pinholes, crazing, or distortion. 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. [Color Variations/Burning Variations] 
While the design is uniform due to the transfer process, slight rubbing of the design may be observed. [Other Notes] 
〇Some items may have small black spots, as shown in the photo.
