Bringing small stories to everyday life

These vessels boast a charming world that seems to have popped right out of a picture book. Animals and flowers, looking as if they're about to spring to life, are freely and vibrantly depicted all over the vessels, warming your heart just by looking at them. Each piece has a unique expression, showcasing the loveliness that only handcrafted items can offer.

All patterns are drawn freehand. Embracing this unique fluidity, the artist independently arrived at the ancient "sgraffito" technique, without even knowing its name, and refined it into a personal expression. The warmth of the handcraft itself becomes the individuality of each piece, creating a profound charm.

After experimenting with various types of clay, the artist chose Mashiko clay, which provides the desired texture. White clay, black clay, and blended clays are used selectively to match the image of each piece, resulting in gentle and profound expressions. Contrary to their rustic appearance, the pieces are made very thin and light, surprising you with their lightness the moment you pick them up. In addition to their everyday usability, they are also microwave-safe for reheating, which is a welcome feature.

From serving your favorite snacks to everyday breakfasts and tea time, these vessels transform ordinary moments into slightly special, rewarding experiences just by plating. You'll find yourself reaching for these vessels more often, making them companions in your daily life.

As each item is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, glaze unevenness/pooling, small pinholes, slight wobbling, and subtle differences in patterns. Additionally, some items may have variations in glaze application, crazing, pinholes, or iron spots (black dots), but these do not affect their use. Please enjoy these as unique expressions of handmade craftsmanship. You cannot choose which specific item you receive, but we hope you look forward to its arrival. If you are concerned, please contact us before shipping and we will email you additional photos.

Recommended care instructions and precautions from Kokeirokobou
〇No special pre-use sealing (medome) is required.
〇Please be careful not to soak, as it may cause odors or stains.


 Understanding "Vessels"
〇As each item is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, pattern, size, thickness, and weight. Additionally, even with the same glaze and clay, there will be variations in color and shade.
〇Each design is hand-painted, so expressions may vary.
〇Depending on the manufacturing process, some products may have small holes, small black dots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, wobbles, or distortions.
〇While we strive to process product 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 inspection of the manufacturer, kiln, or artist, 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 convenience. Please understand and acknowledge this before purchasing.
〇We hope you enjoy the "flavor" and "charm" unique to handmade products, which are not found in mass-produced factory items!
