Shigaraki Wide Bowl II

Product Description

Shigaraki is located in Koka City, Shiga Prefecture, and is recognised as playing a significant part in the long history of Japanese ceramics. It is included as one of Japan's six old kilns – being said to have a history of 1260 years. In 1976 Shigaraki-yaki (Shigaraki ware) was designated as a traditional craft in Japan.

Hechimon is a collection of Japanese ceramics by a third-generation Shigaraki-yaki maker, Marui Seito.

These handcrafted Japanese bowls have a wide opening, are the perfect size for small soups, noodles, and various other dishes. The glaze is matte and textured – resembling metallic stones that take the imagination off towards magical places. As every bowl is handcrafted, each is unique and will differ slightly from piece to piece.
