Colorful teacups, Akatsuki

This clay has a light brown color and a rustic, warm feel. After shaping it into a plump, round teacup shape, colorful decorative mud is used to create patterns. The colors are blue like the sky at dawn, red like the sunlight dyeing the horizon, and sprinkled with white to evoke the specks of stars and sunlight. The round shape is gentle, and when you wrap it around your hand, the soft curves fit comfortably in your palm. It can be used not only for drinks such as Japanese tea, roasted green tea, and coffee, but also as a dessert cup. You can use them as cups for jelly or pudding, or to serve ice cream and cut fruit. Enjoy it in a variety of ways. I have an electric pottery kiln and an electric wheel at home, and I do all of the processes by hand, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and firing. Although we cannot mass-produce them, each one has its own unique expression, 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 installation surface will be sanded down before delivery. In addition, we will waterproof this vessel before shipping it to you, so there is no need to seal the pores. Once you receive it, you can use it immediately after washing it lightly. Using various glazes and clays, I create a wide variety of pottery in different 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 and cozy atmosphere created by the ceramic clay and decorative mud as a way to add color to your daily life. --- *Size and weight* Size: Diameter 9.1cm, Base diameter 3.9cm, Height 6.1cm Weight: 192g --- *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.
