Delicate beauty and cuteness
The breathtaking beauty of slipware with its delicate yet bold compositions, the gentle comfort provided by the ducklings dyed with soft, faint Japanese paper, and the rich, adorable painted designs bring happiness. It's hard to believe that such a diverse range of stories could come from a single creator.
As the saying goes, "vessels are materials that grow with use," they deepen in character and gradually change their appearance with daily use. These vessels gently enrich your life as they accompany you through time.
The colors that bleed through the Japanese paper gently melt into the clay, creating a warm and soft expression. Just looking at the expressions of the subtly breathing wildflowers brings peace to the heart.
With subdued colors and a modern, graceful appearance. While evoking a nostalgic atmosphere, they bring new discoveries with each viewing. Simply placing them on your daily table naturally relaxes your mind and brings calm and happy moments.
As each item is handmade, there may be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, glaze unevenness/pooling, stone bursts, slight wobbling, patterns, etc. Additionally, some items may have variations in glaze application, crazing, pinholes, or iron spots (black dots), but these do not affect usability. Please enjoy them as unique expressions of handmade craftsmanship. You cannot choose which item you receive, but we hope you look forward to its arrival. If you are concerned, please contact us before shipping, and we will gladly email you additional photos.

| Recommended Care and Precautions from Ayano Arai |
| 〇To ensure long-lasting use, we recommend sealing the vessel before use. 〇For items with gold accents, please refrain from using the microwave. Also, be careful not to scrub too hard, as the gold may peel off. 〇We recommend using a mild dish soap and a soft sponge, without abrasive cleaners. After washing, please dry thoroughly before storing. |
| Understanding "Vessels" |
|
〇Due to being handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, pattern, size, thickness, weight, etc. Also, even with the same glaze and clay, there will be variations in color and shade. 〇Since the designs are hand-painted one by one, their expressions may differ. 〇Depending on the product, small holes, small black dots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, wobbling, and distortions may be present due to the manufacturing process. 〇While we strive to process images to be as close to the actual color as possible, the color and texture may appear different depending on your computer or smartphone display. 〇We deliver items that have passed not only the manufacturer, kiln, and artist's inspections but also our final inspection. 〇Product photos are sample shots, so the item you receive will not be identical in every detail. 〇We do not accept returns or exchanges due to customer preferences. Please understand and acknowledge this before making a purchase. 〇We hope you enjoy the "flavor" and "charm" unique to handmade items, which mass-produced factory goods do not possess! |
