Shigaraki Ware Hechimon Free Cup, Blue Drop Design, MR-3-3200

Country of Origin: Japan Shigaraki ware is pottery made in Shigaraki Town, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. Counted one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns, it boasts a rich history spanning more than 1,200 years. The name "hechimon" comes from a Shigaraki artisan's term meaning "unusual objects." These vessels, like the various shapes created by nature and the individual personalities of each of us, possess a variety of expressions. They are filled with the care and playfulness of masters who cherish "inhomogeneity." This series features bold blue patterns that blend into the overglaze, creating a cheerful atmosphere. The faint light blue and glossy, transparent, crazing glaze add a touch of elegance. Individual pieces may vary in size, color, and glaze application from those shown in the photograph. Please enjoy the unique flavor of pottery. Product Size: Approx. 8 x 11 cm Product Weight: 0.18 kg Capacity: Approx. 320 ml Material: Ceramic
