About this craft
Shigaraki-yaki is one of Japan's six ancient kiln regions, established 1250. Known for natural texture, minimalist glazes, and earthy tones. Sumi-iro (ink-tone) refers to the subtle charcoal palette characteristic of Shigaraki ceramic tradition.
Description
Shigaraki hand-thrown tea set in deep ink-tone glaze
Hand wash only. Do not microwave or dishwasher. Allow to dry naturally. Sumi-iro glaze develops slight patina over time with use. Not for boiling water directly in teapot—brew in separate vessel and pour to serve.
