Things to Know Before Purchasing The unique character of each piece of pottery is created by mottling, fading, uneven glaze, variations in shade, and warping—things not found in mass-produced items. Handmade pottery often has pinholes, crazing, or distortions, and is not perfectly uniform. Each piece is slightly different in color, size, and shape, and no two pieces are exactly alike. This is the charm of handmade pottery. These are also the unique characteristics of handmade pottery, so enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime encounter. [Individual Differences] Because each piece is handmade, there will be individual differences in shape, size, and color. [Color Variations/Firing Variations] Since the glaze is applied by hand, the application may not be uniform. During firing, temperatures vary depending on the location of the kiln, resulting in uneven firing. [Other Notes] Once products have passed inspection by the kiln or artist, they are inspected again before being delivered to customers. ■For more information, please click here.
