Bowl with a simple expression A small hexagonal bowl with a simple line pattern. The hexagon represents auspiciousness as a tortoiseshell crest, and is a motif that has been used in designs since ancient times. Combined with the traditional line patterns, it feels nostalgic somehow. The moss-like deep green of the Oribe glaze is beautiful, and the incisions that spread throughout the bowl add depth of flavor. These items create a peaceful atmosphere and create a peaceful time at the dining table. From everyday use to hospitality Pickled horse mackerel in Nanban and boiled taro. It's the perfect size for serving side dishes for one person. It's great for plating side dishes, or heightening it for kaiseki cuisine.

Things you should know before purchasing What creates the expression of pottery are spots, scratches, unevenness in the glaze, shading, and bending of the shape that cannot be seen in mass-produced products. The charm of handmade pottery is that it may have pinholes, intrusions, distortions, etc., and is not perfectly arranged, but each one is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two are exactly the same. Please enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter as these are the unique characteristics of handmade pottery. 【Individual difference】 Each piece is different in size and color shading. [Uneven color/uneven baking] The glaze is carefully applied one by one by hand, so the glaze may not be applied evenly. During firing, the temperature varies depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other notes] 〇As you can see in the photo, there are areas where the glaze is thin. 〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery and artist are inspected again and delivered to the customer.
