Due to differences in plant composition across regions, various factors such as plant selection, soil composition, ash processing methods, and water-to-ash ratios determine the final effect of the ash glaze. Therefore, each ash-glazed ceramic piece exhibits infinitely varied and unique, captivating colors. **Our Plant Ash Glaze** A natural ash glaze formulated from plant ashes sourced locally in Taichung. Each batch of ash glaze involves a complex process with scarce production. Furthermore, the inability to replicate the formula due to variations in plant ingredients imbues the ware with infinitely varied, captivating natural colors and textures. The process for creating our local ash glaze is illustrated in the following diagram: https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54023594837_cd1b56f38d_c.jpg Product Features - Handmade: Each piece is purely handcrafted, embodying the techniques and ingenious creativity of Taiwanese ceramic artists. - Natural Ash Glaze: Formulated from local Taichung plant ashes, presenting unique natural colors and textures. - Irreplicable: Due to variations in plant ingredients, the glaze production process is complex and yields are limited, bestowing each piece with a one-of-a-kind texture. - Resource Recycling: Transforming agricultural waste into natural plant ash, demonstrating our commitment to nature and environmental protection in our production philosophy.

Please consider carefully before purchasing if you seek absolute perfection. * Cracks on the ceramic surface (crazing) are a natural phenomenon resulting from differences in the shrinkage rates of the clay and glaze, and are not product defects or cracks. * Dimensions are measured by hand and may have slight variations (±0.3 cm). * All vessels are fired at high temperatures; please use them with peace of mind. * The vessels are photographed in kind; slight color variations may occur due to differences in lighting and angles during the shooting process. Precautions ◎ Please do not use hard cleaning tools such as metal brushes to avoid scratching the glaze and causing the surface luster to disappear. ◎ Please do not soak for extended periods in dirty water to prevent dirt from accumulating in the crack interstices. ◎ Ensure the vessels are completely dry before storing them.
