Kneaded mug Sunset gradation 1

"Neriage" is a technique in which colorful clay that has been colored with pigments is kneaded together and patterns are created using the centrifugal force and the expansion and contraction of the clay when pulled on a potter's wheel. The patterns that are produced vary depending on how the clay is kneaded and the time and effort spent on turning the wheel, allowing you to enjoy the randomness that occurs at each stage. This vessel is made using three-colored clay colored with red and navy blue pigments. By devising a creative way of mixing the colors, we aimed to achieve a color reminiscent of a sunset sky with thin clouds floating in the air. The outside and inside are different colors, creating a gentle and interesting look. It is coated with a glossy transparent glaze and then firmly fired at 1250 degrees. This mug has a cute round shape and its gentle curves make it fit comfortably in the palm of your hand. The vessel bulges downwards, so it can hold a larger amount of drink than it looks. We hope you will enjoy a relaxing time holding it in your hands and sipping your favorite drink. I use a small electric kiln and an electric potter's wheel at home to make my pottery, and I do all of the processes by hand, from kneading the clay to shaping, bisque firing, glazing, and final firing. Because the pattern varies from time to time, each piece is unique and no two pieces can be made exactly the same. 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. Although it is difficult to see in the photo, this dish has some crazing. 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 simple, warm texture of pottery and the unique colors of the kneaded product along with your favorite beverage. ---- *Size and weight* Size: Diameter 8.7cm, Base diameter 4cm, Height 7cm Weight: 178g ---- *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.
