Slip-Decorated Sake Cup (Red) - Crafted By Takuya Ohara

Glazed and fired by hand, this sake cup carries the quiet character of something made individually. The guinomi form is among the most personal of Japanese ceramics — small, held in one hand, the warmth of the sake felt directly through the surface. Takuya Ohara works in Shiga, Japan, forming and glazing each piece by hand. The surface is finished with the table in mind — a sake cup built for daily use and made to last. Japanese ceramics have been treasured across the world for generations, and a piece like this brings that living tradition to your own table. Hand-glazed Japanese pottery Material: Pottery (ceramic) Made in Shiga, Japan Artisan: Takuya Ohara Size: 7 × 5.2 cm (2.8 × 2.0 in) Because each piece is individually made, slight variations in form and glaze are the mark of a true handmade object.
