Kohiki Handmade Serving Dish - "Entwined Flowers" Small Round Dish - Ø 12cm - Mamezara (Bean Dish), Small Plate, Sauce Dish

Each piece from Xin Zuo Tao is meticulously hand-pinched, allowing you to feel the genuine warmth of handmade craftsmanship. The works eschew overly ornate glazes, focusing instead on techniques like Kohiki, Sometsuke (underglaze blue), and underglaze color. Emotional depth is conveyed through layered slips, revealing the inherent gentle and unadorned nature of clay. The style is naturally simple and unpretentious. Product Specifications: ● Dimensions: Ø 12 cm x H 2.5 cm ● Material: Hand-pinched pottery / Yellow clay + Underglaze color + Glossy transparent glaze / Fired at 1230°C ● Origin: Taiwan — Please Note — 1. Each piece is handmade by an artisan and is truly one-of-a-kind. Minor variations in size and glaze distribution may occur compared to the product images. Please review carefully before purchasing. 2. Handmade pottery utilizes natural mineral clay. After firing, the surface may appear slightly rough with small specks. Glazing may result in fine cracks (crazing), pinholes, unevenness (glaze shrinkage), or staining – these are normal characteristics of handmade items and do not affect usability. Please understand this before purchasing. 3. The glazed surface of handmade pottery has pores, and the clay itself is absorbent. To prevent the ceramic from absorbing odors or colors, it is recommended to boil new vessels in rice water before their first use. Allow them to cool naturally and rinse thoroughly before use. 4. Upon receiving your package, please open and inspect the item's condition within 24 hours. If there is any damage, please contact Xin Zuo Tao immediately to facilitate communication with the logistics provider and ensure your rights. — Care Instructions — ● Before the first use, please wash with a sponge and mild detergent. Avoid drastic temperature changes during use. ● Please refrain from using dishwashers, dryers, or microwaves, as rapid temperature fluctuations can alter glaze colors or cause cracking due to vibrations. ● For Kohiki and similar pottery, do not store immediately after use. After cleaning, ensure the item is thoroughly dried in a well-ventilated area to prevent discoloration or odors.
