The energy of the earth in your hand. Tanba ware Shozo Kiln's spiral brushstroke mug

A powerful, swirling brushstroke expression. This mug shines with the handiwork of "Shozo Kiln," which carries on the tradition of Tanba ware, one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns. The deep indigo and iron colors blend together, and the complex hues created by the firing conditions evoke a sense of depth, as if containing the energy of the universe and the earth.

Enjoy a moment of peace with all five senses With a width of 9cm and a height of 7cm, it has a stable form that fits perfectly in your hand. The thick rim is gentle on the lips and comfortably conveys the temperature of coffee or tea.

• For your morning coffee: Carefully drip dark roast beans. The powerful texture of the vessel will make your awakening cup even more special.

• To add color to your tea time: Rich cafe au lait and chai are also recommended. The warmth of the earth, as if embracing the hot drink, will relax your mind and body.

• As a soup cup: Pour in a hearty soup. Its modern appearance, which blends in with both Japanese and Western settings, will add a chic touch to your dining table.

The "scenery" that shows various expressions such as deep blue, dull gold, and jet black depending on how the light hits it, is never tiresome to look at. The spiral indentations felt by your fingers will surely make you feel the artist's breath. How about this as a lifelong companion to richly color your moments of respite in a busy daily life?

As some products are handmade, the color, shape, and size may slightly differ from the photos. The "individual differences (color unevenness, crazing, pinholes, iron spots, etc.)" peculiar to pottery are the natural texture intended by the artist and kiln, and are not considered defects. We hope you will enjoy the "scenery" that a unique, one-of-a-kind vessel has, unlike mass-produced goods.
