The surface shows fine pinholes and tiny iron specks, with warm rust-brown accents along the rim and foot—hallmarks of Shino’s lively, kiln-driven character.

Dimensions: height 8 cm, diameter 9 cm.

Bold calligraphy runs around the bowl, referencing Yamato Sushi and nigiri; it was likely made as a commemorative or anniversary piece.

The organic shape sits beautifully in the hand and makes matcha, tea, or coffee feel just a little more special. It also works well as a small serving bowl or as a decorative accent on an open shelf.
