Square Yunomi with Gold and Silver Accents, Red Camellia b

A Yunomi (tea cup) in a deep, rich color, adorned with camellias painted from the pottery studio's garden. This piece embodies a refined, Japanese aesthetic. Crafted using Shigaraki clay and shaped on a potter's wheel, this Yunomi features meticulously hand-painted camellias, gradually colored and fired multiple times to achieve its finish. The camellias are depicted with a touch of gold and silver for a vibrant accent. Its form is comfortable to hold and easy to drink from, and it can also serve as a small bowl. It can be paired with a separately sold pitcher. The beauty of this piece deepens over time as fine cracks, known as 'kannyu,' develop on the surface. Diameter 8.5cm x 8.5cm, Height 6.5cm, Weight 130g, Capacity 130cc About Kannyu (Crackle Glaze): These are fine cracks that appear on the surface of ceramics, adding to their character and visual appeal. *Not suitable for use in microwave ovens, dishwashers, ovens, or with cleansers or nylon scrubbers. *Gold and silver accents may naturally dull over time, developing a subdued luster. Gently polishing with a cloth used for jewelry can restore their shine.
