About the style and atmosphere Ontayaki is characterized by its unique geometric patterns created using traditional techniques such as "hake-me", "tobikanna", and "comb-painting(kushime)". Nowadays, it is gaining popularity due to its traditional yet somewhat modern design. It is a pottery that naturally blends into modern life while retaining its old-fashioned, rustic charm. Each item is different in shape, size, color, etc., so some items may look like the ones in the photo. Differences in color, uneven color, and sagging that occur by chance during firing and hand-molding create a unique handmade texture. Enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter, as no two items are the same. ■You can also view Ontayaki here.
