This elegant mug is thrown from a textured Uji stoneware, draped in an oak ash glaze. The ash glaze exhibits subtle shifts in its cool grey hue along with prominent crazing which will develop further with use. This mug is ideal for slowly sipping on freshly brewed houjicha or even coffee.
Before using it for the first time, it is recommended to soak the piece in water for 10 minutes. This will dislodge any dust from the clay as well as slow down the natural development of patina in the glaze.
This mug was made by the skilled craftsmen at the Asahiyaki studio and wood-fired in their climbing kiln.
