Crafted from a natural clay with a rustic texture and earthy tones. After being shaped into a generously sized bowl, it's adorned with a brushstroke pattern using a variety of colorful slips.

We invite you to savor your favorite beverages and dishes with this piece. All stages of creation, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing, are meticulously done by hand in my home studio, which is equipped with a small electric kiln and a potter's wheel. While I cannot produce items in large quantities, each piece possesses its own unique character, offering the distinct charm of handcrafted artistry. The item you will receive is the exact piece shown in the product images. To ensure it glides smoothly across your table, the base has been carefully sanded. I continuously explore various glazes and clay combinations, experimenting to discover the most harmonious pairings and creating ceramics in a diverse range of colors and forms. Each piece is a unique creation, similar but never identical, a testament to the beauty of handmade items. It would bring me great joy if you find a piece that speaks to you. We hope you will find a touch of warmth and comfort to brighten your everyday life with the harmonious blend of clay and colored slips. ----- *Dimensions and Weight* Diameter: 10cm Base Diameter: 4.5cm Height: 7.6cm Weight: 230g ----- *Important Notes for Purchase and Use* - Ceramic is naturally porous and may, in some cases, absorb colors into crazing or allow moisture to seep through. For this reason, we treat our items with a water-stopping agent specifically for tableware before shipping, so there is no need for an initial sealing process (me-dame). This water-stopping treatment requires 2-3 days to complete, which is why we allow a 5-day period between order and shipment. If you prefer to forgo the water-stopping treatment, please inform us at the time of purchase. - Cutlery shown in product images is not included. - While we strive to ensure product images accurately represent the actual item, colors may appear differently depending on your monitor's settings and lighting conditions. We appreciate your understanding. - As this item is also sold on other platforms, in the rare event of overlapping purchases, preference will be given to the customer who completes the checkout process first. We kindly ask for your understanding. - This item is suitable for use in a microwave (for gentle warming) and dishwasher. However, prolonged exposure to microwave vibrations or high-pressure hot water spray may accelerate wear. We recommend using these functions sparingly. - Please refrain from using this item in an oven or over an open flame. - After use, please wash thoroughly and ensure the item is completely dry before storing it in your cupboard to prevent stains and mold.
