The mouth is flat, with an octagonal cup and a saucer with an octagonal rim that curves upward. The highlight is the mismatch between the delicate form and the rough glaze that looks like a different material.
A lightweight and easy-to-hold cup and saucer set, with the saucer also usable as a small plate, making it highly practical.
Colors are available in White, Gray, and Brass.
A special white only for the Octagonal Cup & Saucer and Mug. We used a glossy, warm, slightly yellowish white glaze. It gives an impression closer to the white color of French antique vessels.
A lovely bluish-gray with a patina like copper verdigris. The subtle colors where brown, blue, and white blend and change in the kiln are unique, painting a beautiful scene on the vessel's surface. Perfect for a cool-themed table coordination.
A brass color with a pale hue and texture reminiscent of antique metal tableware, unlike typical pottery. With use, the color of the vessel gradually changes due to oil and acid, truly a vessel that matures. The aging change is also a delightful color. A happy point is that the colors of the ingredients and dishes you pair it with stand out.
Many admire antique or artist-made vessels. They are expensive, and you wonder if you can use them well... hesitating to take that first step, and in the end, the admiration remains just admiration...
While having details like antiques or artist-made pieces, it is a highly practical vessel suited for modern lifestyles using strong clay.
Created with the desire to achieve accessible richness using Mino materials and techniques, together with Mino potters.
This is a vessel that will be the first step to realizing your admiration.
Comes in a box, making it perfect for gifts ◎
