On Sale / Color Slip Brushed Pattern Teacup / Spring Colors 6

*Offered at a special sale price as part of inventory clearance. We hope you will consider this opportunity. Crafted from earthenware, this piece possesses a simple texture and color palette. After being shaped into a bowl capable of holding a generous amount of liquid, it was adorned with a brushed pattern using colorful slips. The design evokes the warm wind of a spring garden, with changing colors visible from different angles, offering a dynamic visual experience. Its round, gentle form ensures that when you cradle it in both hands, the soft curves fit snugly against your palm. This vessel is also recommended for enjoying generous servings of coffee, cafe au lait, or matcha. We invite you to savor it with your favorite beverages or dishes. All creation processes, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing, are meticulously done by hand in my home studio, equipped with a small electric kiln and a potter's wheel. While mass production is not possible, each piece carries its own unique character, allowing you to appreciate the distinct charm of handmade items. The item you receive will be the same as pictured. The base of the cup has been carefully sanded to minimize any potential scratching on your table surfaces. By experimenting with various glazes and clays, I continually explore new combinations, creating ceramic pieces in diverse shapes and colors. Each piece is unique, subtly different from the next, akin to one-of-a-kind creations. It would bring me great joy if you find a piece that truly speaks to you. We hope you will enjoy the warm and comforting atmosphere woven by the earthenware and slips as a delightful addition to your daily life. ---------- *Dimensions and Weight* Diameter: 9.4cm Base Diameter: 4.1cm Height: 7.1cm Weight: 214g ---------- *Notes on Purchase and Use* - Due to the porous nature of ceramics, colors may stain the crazing over time, or moisture may seep through in some cases. To address this, all our ceramic tableware undergoes a waterproofing treatment with a food-safe sealant before shipping, eliminating the need for initial "seasoning" (me-zame). This treatment requires 2-3 days to complete, hence our shipping window of 5 days from order placement. If you prefer not to have the waterproofing treatment applied, please inform us at the time of purchase. - Cutlery shown in product images is not included. - Product images are edited and shot to be as true to the actual item as possible.

We appreciate your understanding. - While this item can be used in a microwave (for gentle warming) and a dishwasher, the vibrations from microwaves and the high-pressure spray in dishwashers may accelerate wear.
