Octagonal Teacup with Dragonfly Design

This teacup depicts dragonflies flying around in the workshop garden. This piece features a dragonfly depicted in a bluish grey with an earthy texture, giving it a tasteful feel, allowing you to experience the beauty of Japanese culture and the seasons. This piece is carefully shaped on a potter's wheel, then pressed with a spatula while still soft into an octagonal shape, and then shaped again when carved after drying. After bisque firing, a dragonfly is drawn with liquid rubber and a top glaze is applied, the liquid rubber is removed, and the piece is finished by firing again. This teacup has a large capacity and keeps the tea warm for a long time. It is perfect for everyday use or as a gift. You can enjoy watching the porcelain develop crazes and gain depth as you use it.
