Shino wood-fired pottery teacup

After being tempered by wood firing, Shino glaze displays a delicate and unique cracked glaze texture, like ice cracks on a lake in winter, or like traces of the passage of time, warm and profound. The high-temperature fire quenching makes the glaze surface present rich changes, sometimes snow-white and misty, sometimes with a faint orange-red, like the morning light reflecting on the snow, quiet and leisurely. When the tea is full, the subtle texture of the glaze reflects the light and shadow, making every sip more poetic. ・Shino glaze wood-fired, the texture is warm and varied ・Natural crackle texture, showing the beauty of time and firewood interweaving ・Suitable for tea tasting, feel the tranquility of wood burning and tea soup blending ● Author: Yang Yijuan ● Size: 8 cm in diameter and 5 cm in height ● Capacity: 140 ml ︱Notes︱ ● All pottery is handmade by ceramic artists, and the design and color are unique. Even if they are the same work, each piece will still be slightly different. ● Each wood-fired work is unique. Even if you make it again in gray, the color will not be the same. If you miss it, you will miss it! ● The colors of pottery works are rich and difficult to fully display with flat photos. We try our best to capture the most real side, but since each computer displays colors differently, color differences may occur, so the actual object is the main focus. ︱Hand-made teapot︱ https://c1.staticflickr.com/5/4190/33700070253_d8a486a212_b.jpg It is made entirely by hand-kneading techniques, retaining the creator's touch and temperature, while also strictly requiring precise details, including the roundness and thinness of the pot body, which allows the brewed tea to breathe more smoothly and sweetly, and the perfectly tight lid. The small teapot is held in your hand, with subtle details at every angle, and combined with the fire marks from wood burning, you can savor the beauty of the tea utensil. In addition, you can carefully observe the bumpy hand marks on the inner wall of the teapot, which is the proof that it was purely hand-kneaded and also the trajectory of its creation. This is the romance of a hand-made teapot! ︱Maintenance Information︱ ● Can hold hot water and hot food; do not heat with direct flame (alcohol lamp, gas stove) to avoid cracking and damage. ● Use soft materials (sponge, sponge) to clean; do not use rough materials (steel brush, sandpaper) to scrub, as this may scratch the surface. ︱A short story about wood burning︱ https://c1.staticflickr.com/3/2805/33343940793_f95db781ca_b.jpg The master craftsman takes over and keeps the fire burning for 4 days and 4 nights, relying on his experience to judge the temperature by adding firewood. This is an ancient skill that is time-consuming, laborious and almost lost.**Each piece is unique in the world. It is impossible to make a second piece exactly like it. It is worth collecting.**Wood-fired works are not glazed, but the natural ash produced by wood-fired firing gives each work a beautiful natural and non-toxic coat.
