A round teacup with a carved pattern reminiscent of raindrops

Rough-grained red clay gives off the warmth of pottery. After shaping it into a round teacup shape, it is engraved with a pattern reminiscent of raindrops and then painted with a light blue glaze. The entire vessel is covered with a matte glaze, giving it a rustic texture. The cute, round shape of the bowl fits comfortably in the palm of your hand when you hold it in both hands. The inside is whitish, so you can enjoy the color of clear drinks such as green tea and black tea. Of course, it can also be used for drinks such as cafe latte and roasted green tea latte.It can also be used as a container for ice cream and pudding. Enjoy it with a variety of drinks and food. I use a small electric furnace and an electric potter's wheel at home, and all processes, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and firing, are done by hand. Although they cannot be mass-produced, each one has its own unique character, allowing you to enjoy the flavor that comes from being made by hand. The item you receive will be the same as the product image. To minimize damage to the table, the contact surface will be sanded down before delivery. Furthermore, since it is made thicker to accommodate the carved pattern, it is slightly heavier than other teacups. We hope you enjoy the weightiness that is characteristic of ceramic products. Using various glazes and clays, I create a wide variety 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 atmosphere created by the clay and glaze as a way to add color to your daily life. ---- *Size and weight* Size: Diameter 9.3cm, base diameter 4.1cm, height 6.1cm Weight: 213g ---- * 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.
