Like a Gentle Spring Breeze
The soft and delicate colors evoke a gentle feeling, as if a spring breeze is softly caressing your heart. The animals and plants, depicted in faint and soft hues, add a special touch of color to everyday life.
The adorable animals, flowers, and plant patterns, drawn with a soft touch, envelop you in a warm feeling every time you hold and use them. The world view, sprinkled with small delights, is like a joyful story with new discoveries every time you turn a page.
The texture, born from repeated trial and error with pigments and glazes, creates a gentle and soft atmosphere. The size is just right, offering a comfortable feel that makes you want to pick it up every day. Furthermore, it's thoughtfully designed with an anti-stain treatment, making it less prone to dirt.
The warmth and peace of handmade craftsmanship, the gentle colors, the textures, and the animal and plant patterns that make you smile will softly soothe your heart. This is a vessel that quietly delivers small joys.
As each item is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, glaze irregularities, glaze pooling, stone inclusions, slight wobbling, and subtle variations in patterns and designs. Additionally, some items may show differences in glaze application, crazing, pinholes, or iron spots (black dots), but these do not affect usability. Please enjoy these as unique characteristics of handmade craftsmanship. We cannot accommodate requests for specific items, but we hope you look forward to receiving your item. If you are concerned, please contact us before shipping, and we will email you additional photos. Feel free to reach out to us.

| Recommended Care Instructions and Precautions from Aki Ota |
| 〇 Unlike porcelain, pottery is absorbent, so please dry it thoroughly before storing. 〇 The microwave can be used for warming. 〇 Please refrain from using a dishwasher. 〇 Crazing may appear on the painted parts. This is not a crack and can be used without issue. 〇 Although it has been treated to prevent staining, marks may appear if it comes into contact with metal cutlery or stainless steel baskets. Please clean it by scrubbing with an abrasive cleaner. |
| Understanding "Utsuwa" (Tableware) |
|
〇 As 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, color unevenness and shades will appear. 〇 Since each painting is hand-drawn, the expression may differ. 〇 Depending on the manufacturing process, some products may have small holes, small black dots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, wobbling, or distortion. 〇 We process images to make the product photos as close as possible to the actual colors, but the color and texture may appear different depending on the display screen of your computer or smartphone. 〇 We deliver products that have passed not only the inspection of the manufacturer, kiln, and 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 agree to this before purchasing. 〇 We hope you enjoy the "flavor" and "charm" unique to handmade items, which are not found in mass-produced factory goods! |
