Rice Bowl Turned on a Potter's Wheel Mizumezakura Black Lacquer

It is an introduction of the first rice bowl in PINT. Rice bowls have a strong image of ceramics, but wooden bowls have been commonly used in Japan since ancient times, and there is a long history of eating rice in wooden bowls. Wooden bowls, which are often used for soup bowls, are characterized by low thermal conductivity and lightness. Of course, this characteristic is especially demonstrated in miso soup and soups, so wooden bowls are often used for soup bowls, but I would also like to recommend it for rice. The lightness and softness when you hold it in your hand are unique to wood. The rice also looks beautiful on the firm wooden surface of the wiping lacquer. Together with the ceramic rice bowl, the wooden tea bowl is also a must-try. This is an original rice bowl made by Rokurosha, which is run by Mr. Sakai, a woodturner in Sabae City, Fukui Prefecture. Like the potter's wheel soup bowl, it has a solid base, so it is easy to hold and stable. It has a sharp outline with straight lines and a beautiful balance. In addition, the cherry tree has a light grain, so even if it is wiped with lacquer, the feeling of wood is not too strong, and it blends well with other vessels. The shape and material soften the Japanese atmosphere of the sturdy soup bowl, and it has a nice appearance. The painting is also finished in the same production area. There are two colors, black lacquer and unrefined lacquer. There are two types of shapes: soup bowl and rice bowl. The rice bowl is wider in diameter and shorter in height.
