Sake Jug 8cm 300ml Shibori Pattern
Featuring a traditional 'Shibori' pattern in a Japanese indigo blue on a warm white background. Shibori is an ancient method of dying cloth. It represents the spotted back of a fawn. Creating this fabric pattern is very labour intensive and gives special value to these items. It is now a popular pattern in Japanese culture for its simplicity, beauty and connection with luxury.
The Ko Family kiln specialises in crafting small items that require patience and care. Ko-san's parents hand-finish all items - smoothing bases, painting edges or perfecting motifs with experienced, steady hands.
Slight irregularities in size, glaze and texture reflect the artisan nature of the product and are embraced.
