Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. 【Individual difference】 The finish is relatively uniform, but because it is handmade, there may be individual differences in shape, size, color, etc. [Uneven color/uneven baking] Each painting is done by hand, so the thickness of the lines may not be uniform. During firing, the temperature varies depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing.
