A powerful, undulating expression. This mug shines with the handiwork of "Shozo Kiln," which carries on the tradition of Tamba Ware, one of Japan's six ancient kilns. The deep indigo and iron colors blend together, and the complex hues created by the firing temperature give it a depth that seems to capture the energy of the universe and the earth.
A moment of tranquility to enjoy 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 pleasantly conveys the temperature of coffee or tea.
For your morning coffee: Carefully drip-brew dark roast beans. The mug's powerful texture makes your morning cup even more special.
To add color to tea time: Rich cafe au lait or chai are also recommended. The earthy warmth that envelops a hot drink will relax your body and mind.
As a soup cup: Fill it with hearty soup. Its modern appearance, which blends in with both Japanese and Western settings, will elegantly enhance your dining table.
The "scenery," which shows various expressions such as deep blue, dull gold, and jet black depending on how the light hits it, is never boring to look at. The spiral unevenness felt on your fingers will surely make you feel the artist's breath. How about it as a lifelong companion that will richly color your moments of respite in your busy daily life?
*As some products are handmade, the color, shape, and size may differ slightly from the photos. The "individual differences" (uneven color, crazing, pinholes, iron spots, etc.) characteristic of ceramics are the natural texture intended by the artist or kiln and are not considered defects.
*We hope you enjoy the "scenery" of a one-of-a-kind vessel, which cannot be found in mass-produced items.
Soaking in water before use prevents food moisture and oils from soaking in easily.
