Glazed in a layered, settled blue, this bowl holds its color differently in different light — deepening where the glaze pools, lightening at the rim. There is a quietness to the tone that suits a table set without fuss. Tatsuo Otomo forms and glazes each bowl by hand in Japan, working at a pace that allows every piece to receive full attention. What you hold is the result of that care — a bowl made to be used and to last. Japanese ceramics have been treasured across the world for generations, and a bowl like this brings that living tradition to your own table. Formed and finished by hand. The glaze settles differently on every piece, so no two are alike. Yours will differ a little from the one photographed — that is the hand of the maker. Material: Japanese pottery (ceramic) Made in Japan Artisan: Tatsuo Otomo Size: 15 × 5.7 cm (5.9 × 2.2 in) Because each piece is individually made, slight variations in form and glaze are the mark of a true handmade object.
