This is a small rice bowl made by combining straw ash glaze with its simple and warm color and ceramic clay with a warm texture typical of pottery.
Instead of firing in the electric kiln that I normally use at home, I had the pieces fired in a kerosene kiln at the pottery maker that I am currently using.
This item is fired using a method called reduction firing, which reduces the amount of oxygen in the kiln during firing, allowing you to enjoy a refined flavor that cannot be achieved in an electric furnace.
The straw ash glaze used is an original glaze made by the potter, who himself burns rice straw and mixes it using the ash.
It has a color and texture that you won't find anywhere else.
When used as a bowl of rice, the size may be just right for those with a small appetite, but may be a little small for those who eat a lot.
It can also be used for small noodles, rice bowls, and soups with lots of ingredients.
The color and texture that evokes the taste of earthiness harmonizes with a variety of ingredients and goes well with any color of food.
Please enjoy it with a variety of dishes.
I use a small electric kiln and an electric potter's wheel at home to make my pottery, and all processes, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing, are done by hand.
We felt that a plump form would suit the texture of the clay and glaze, so we threw the pieces a little thicker than usual. They are a little heavy to hold, but you can enjoy the soft atmosphere that only pottery can provide.
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 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 that the warm atmosphere unique to pottery and the colors of the glaze will add color to your daily life.

*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.
For this reason, we ship products after performing a water-stopping treatment using a water-stopping agent for tableware, so there is no need to seal the pores.
The waterproofing treatment takes 2-3 days, so please allow 5 days from the time of order to shipping.
If you do not need the waterproofing agent, please let us know at the time of purchase.
- The cutlery in the product images is not included.
- We try to photograph and edit product images as accurately as possible to make them appear as real as possible, but they may appear differently depending on your monitor settings and lighting conditions.
・As this product is also sold on other websites, in the unlikely event that there are multiple purchases, we will deliver to the person who made the purchase first. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
・You can also use it in the microwave (for warming) or dishwasher, but the vibrations from the microwaves and the spraying of hot water may accelerate deterioration. We would appreciate it if you could refrain from using them as much as possible.

After use, wash thoroughly and dry thoroughly to prevent stains and mold.
