Warmth amidst dignified serenity
The soft shadows created by the delicate carvings give it a quiet elegance, like an antique that has aged well. The gentleness and warmth born from the handiwork quietly breathes within its dignified appearance.
The source of inspiration is the natural shapes of plants, flowers, nuts and vegetables. The soft, organic lines are as if the beauty of the natural world has been gently captured inside the vessel. The brilliance of small lives that we happen to see in the changing seasons is carefully reflected in each piece.
The rich, dark candy glaze has an elegant and chic texture. The warmth of the clay and the varying shades of the glaze that blend into the unevenness of the ridges, unique to ceramic vessels made from Mashiko clay, create a depth and richness of expression.
The design blends seamlessly into your everyday dining table and harmonizes beautifully with other tableware. It's something you naturally want to pick up in your daily life. It's tableware that is close to your heart, making everyday moments feel just a little more special.
Since each piece is handmade, there may be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, uneven glaze, and glaze pools. Also, there may be differences in the amount of glaze applied, crazing, pinholes, or iron powder (black spots), but this does not affect the use of the product. Please enjoy the unique expressions that can only be achieved through handmade products. You cannot choose which item you will receive, but we hope you will look forward to receiving it. If you are interested, please contact us before shipping and we will email you a photo separately.

| Recommended care methods and precautions from Ayako Wakana |
|
〇 There is no need to seal the porcelain before use. 〇 If you run it through hot water or water before use, it will be less likely to get dirty. You can also enjoy the gradual changes over time. 〇 Please refrain from pouring highly pigmented liquids such as soy sauce or red wine into white dishes when they are completely dry, as this can cause stains and color transfer. Please run it through hot water or water before use. |
| Understanding of "Utsuwa" |

*Because each piece is 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 uneven color and shading. *Each piece is hand painted, so the expression may vary. Depending on the product, small holes, small black spots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, rattling, and distortions may be found due to the manufacturing process. *We process the product images to make them as close to the actual colors as possible, but the colors and textures may appear different depending on the display screen of your computer or smartphone. *In addition to inspection by the manufacturer, kiln, and artist, we only deliver products that have passed final inspection at our store. *The product photos are sample shots, so the items you receive will not be identical in every detail. * We do not accept returns or exchanges due to customer convenience. Please understand and agree before making a purchase. We hope you enjoy the unique "flavor" and "interestingness" that can only come from something handmade, not mass-produced in a factory! |
