This is a Tamba-yaki square bowl with a unique design by Mr. Keiichi Shimizu, the kiln owner. It can be used as a vase. This is the ultimate masterpiece, embodying the charm of the Kaneto kiln. The pottery's appeal lies in its ability to display various expressions depending on the viewing angle, making you want to gaze at it for a long time. The rough texture directly conveys the feel of the specially blended clay, offering a special and wonderful experience of "touching a work of art." This is a highly recommended item. Tamba (Tachikui) ware is a beautiful pottery designated as a National Traditional Craft. Each piece is handmade, and because it is Tamba-yaki pottery fired with care and time, you can feel the difference in its color depth and texture compared to others.
