Country of Origin: Japan Shigaraki ware is pottery made in Shigaraki Town, Koka City, Shiga Prefecture. Counted one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns, it boasts a rich history spanning more than 1,200 years. The name "hechimon" comes from a Shigaraki artisan's term meaning "unusual objects." These vessels, each with their own unique character, are imbued with the playful spirit and dedication of masters who cherish "inhomogeneity." The vibrant white finish, painted with a brush, resembles waves crashing on the shore and splashing, creating a highly symbolic design that evokes a Japanese aesthetic. Individual pieces may differ in size, color, and glaze finish from those shown in the photograph. Please enjoy the unique character of pottery.
