Tambaware is said to have originated from the late Heian period to the early Kamakura period and is one of the Six Ancient Kilns of Japan (certified as a Japan Heritage site). Shusaku Ichino of Shozo Kiln (Tambasasayama City, Hyogo Prefecture) is a potter who, after graduating from Ryukoku University, honed his skills at the Kyoto Prefectural Pottery Technology College and continues to create works as the third-generation head of the kiln. While cherishing traditional techniques, he creates modern pieces with rich colors and delicate flowing patterns.
The glaze pattern, which flows like shimmering ink, adds depth and power to the vessel's expression. No two patterns are alike, creating a unique charm.
The convenient size of approximately 14 cm makes it perfect for side dishes, appetizers, or as a serving bowl for everyday meals.
Due to the hand-applied glaze, there are individual differences in the appearance of the suminagashi patterns and colors. Please enjoy the unique texture of handcrafted items, where each piece has a different expression.
