Product Details

A true handmade Wabi-Sabi beauty with over 1200 years of history, perfectly suited for your unique experience of tea, coffee or other beverages This version of Iga-Yaki porcelain comes with a speckled dark clay and lively fresh Hydrangea coloured glaze In the 17th century, this form of pottery from the Mie Prefecture broadly influenced its era with vessels and vases used in tea ceremonies Nowadays, due to the high quality of its 3 million year old clay, Iga-yaki is mostly known for tableware such as earthen pots for everyday use. Especially because of their sturdiness and high heat resistance Tiny pebbles inside the gaerome clay give our cups their distinctive rough look. Glazed or unglazed - each of our cups has their own unique character Made by the Mashino-kiln in Iga, Mie Prefecture, Japan. Approx. 100ml.
