Things to Know Before Purchasing The unique character of each piece of pottery is created by mottling, fading, uneven glaze, shading, and shape variations not found in mass-produced items. Handmade pottery is not perfectly uniform, with pinholes, crazing, or distortions. 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 these are handmade, there may be individual differences in shape, size, and color. [Painting] Because each piece is carefully painted by hand, there may be variations in the pattern, design, and color shading. [Other Notes] 〇Minor dirt, residue, and scratches may be present. 〇Products that have passed inspection by the pottery manufacturer or artist are inspected again before being delivered to customers. ■For more information, please click here.
