Known as "Shiromon," White Satsuma originated as the official pottery for the Satsuma lords at the Naeshirogawa kiln. Artisans mold white clay and apply a transparent glaze, resulting in its signature fine surface crazing. - What is "Kannyu" (Crackle Patterns)? Kannyu is a hallmark of White Satsuma beauty. These crackle-like lines occur during the firing process due to the different expansion rates between the clay and the glaze. These patterns reflect light to create a variety of elegant textures. * Tannins found in coffee and tea react with the ceramic body over time, allowing you to enjoy a beautiful aging process. To preserve the brilliance of the crackle patterns and slow the color change, wash the bottle promptly after use and dry it completely. [Black Glaze / Soba Glaze] - What is Black Satsuma? Affectionately known as "Kuromon," Black Satsuma features a bold black glaze. While White Satsuma served the nobility, Black Satsuma evolved as a durable and beloved daily ware for the people. - Naeshirogawa Ware This represents the oldest and most historic of the three surviving lineages of Satsuma ware. It is a registered trademark of the Araki Pottery Kiln. - About Soba Glaze The 14th-generation master, Kanjiro Araki, dedicated his life to developing this unique, natural glaze.
