Delicate beauty and cuteness.
The slipware, with its delicate yet bold compositions, possesses a breathtaking beauty that captivates the eye. The softly colored, gentle-textured ducklings made from dyed Japanese paper soothe the viewer's heart. The relief series, with its elegantly shimmering gold leaf, exudes a different kind of splendor, creating a diverse narrative that is hard to believe came from a single creator.
As the saying goes, "Utensils grow with use," and just like that, these vessels deepen in character and gradually change their appearance as you continue to use them in your daily life. They gently accompany your daily life, adding a touch of warmth to your living space as you spend time together.
This is a series of reliefs featuring quietly blooming flowers, each meticulously hand-painted. The delicate flowers evoke images of gentle breezes across the meadow and the faint fragrance of blossoms. The softly spreading floral patterns possess a calming quality that seems to gently slow down the passage of time. The gold leaf subtly catches the light, shimmering as if touched by the soft glow of twilight.
With its calming colors and modern, gentle presence, it evokes a sense of nostalgia while offering new discoveries with every glance. Simply placing it quietly on your daily table will naturally soothe your heart and bring you peaceful and happy moments.
Because each item is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, glaze unevenness/pooling, crazing, slight wobbles, and patterns. Also, some items may have variations in glaze application, cracks, pinholes, or iron powder (black spots), but these do not affect their use. Please enjoy these unique expressions that are characteristic of handmade items. You cannot choose which item will arrive, but we hope you will enjoy the anticipation until it reaches you. If you are concerned, please contact us before shipping, and we will send you photos via email.

| Recommended care methods and precautions from Ayano Arai |
| 〇To ensure long-term use, we recommend sealing the product before use. 〇For products with gold leaf decoration, please refrain from using them in the microwave. Also, please be careful as strong washing may cause the gold leaf to peel off. 〇We recommend washing with a soft sponge and neutral dish soap, without using abrasives. After washing, dry thoroughly before storing. |
| Understanding "Utzwa" (a type of Japanese pottery) |
| 〇Because each item is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, pattern, size, thickness, and weight. Also, even with the same glaze and clay, there will be uneven coloring and variations in shade. *Please note that each item is hand-painted, so the expressions may vary slightly. 〇Depending on the product, small holes, small black spots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, wobbles, and warping may occur due to the manufacturing process. 〇We process the images of our products to make the colors as close to the actual product as possible, but the color and texture may appear different depending on the display screen of your computer or smartphone. 〇In our store, we deliver products that have passed not only the quality control checks of the manufacturer, kiln owner, and artist, but also our final quality control check. 〇The product photos are sample shots, so the item you receive will not be exactly the same in every detail. We do not accept returns or exchanges due to customer's reasons. Please purchase with understanding and agreement. 〇 We hope you will enjoy the "flavor" and "interest" unique to handmade items, which are not found in mass-produced factory goods! |
