This design started off in life as a soy sauce pourer, with its delicate small spout and cylindrical body. But the design was so pleasing that we made a slightly larger one too with a volume more suitable for sake drinkers! The edge of the lid even has a slight concave shape to it so it is easy to pick up and replace on the top. Then there is yet another clear feldspar glaze lining the katakuchi and spout. Such attention to detail.
Available in two sizes, the smaller one is approximately 8cm Long, 6.5cm Wide, 8cm High with a volume of 150ml, and the larger one is approximately 9.5cm Long, 8cm Wide, 10.5cm High with a volume of 250ml

Kobo Daidai
Suzuki san has mastered the bright blue citrus ash crackle glaze which shimmers on his pieces like the waves on Tokyo Bay, which you can glimpse from his tiny studio in Kanagawa just South of Tokyo.
His pottery studio has more guitars in it than ceramics, becuase he loves to tinker with them and mend them in his spare time.
