[Individual differences] Because each item is handmade, there may be individual differences in pattern, shape, size, color shade, etc. [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.
