Sake cup, Scarlet 2-a

A sake cup with a simple design, featuring a rustic clay texture and a rich gradation of scarlet hues that create a profound aesthetic. This vessel adds depth to your daily sake or tea time. This sake cup is carefully crafted on a potter's wheel using Shigaraki clay rich in feldspar. The distinctive scarlet hue, characteristic of Shigaraki ware, is achieved through firing in a gas kiln. Due to the high-temperature firing process, coarse stones within the clay melt and emerge on the surface. After firing, each stone is meticulously hand-polished to ensure a smooth, comfortable feel. The earthy texture is pleasing to the touch, enhancing the enjoyment of sake, tea, or other beverages. You can appreciate how the colors and character deepen with continued use.
