Sakura flower kiln glaze cut teacup

The smooth white clay brings out the bright colors of the glaze, while the matte texture and warm, subdued colors of the Sakuraka kiln-changed glaze give it a warm look. This teacup was created by combining these two elements. The smooth texture of the glaze is comfortable and somehow warm. I usually make rounded vessels, but I wanted to try making shapes and objects that I hadn't made before. Even so, there is a sense of roundness to the piece, and although it is cut from a steep angle, it gives off a soft impression. The size is perfect for not only drinks such as green tea, roasted green tea, coffee, and cafe au lait, but also for making coffee jelly and pudding. Please enjoy it with your favorite drinks and food. I use a small electric kiln and an electric potter's wheel at home to make my pottery, and I do all of the processes by hand, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing. Although we cannot mass-produce them, each one has its own unique character and you can enjoy the flavor that comes from being made by hand. The item you receive will be the same as the product image. To avoid damaging your table as much as possible, the contact surface will be sanded down before delivery. Using a variety of glazes and clays, I create a wide range of pottery in a variety of colors and shapes, searching for the best combinations. It is impossible to create two identical pieces, so although they may look similar, each piece is unique. I would be very happy if you could find your favorite. We hope you enjoy the warm texture and atmosphere created by the clay and glaze as a way to add color to your daily life. ---- *Size and weight* - Diameter 8cm, base diameter 4.1cm, height 6.8cm Weight: 127g ---- *Precautions for purchase and use - Due to its nature, pottery is absorbent, and in some cases color may stain the crazing or moisture may seep out.
