Heuge MUG - setoguro

CHIPS HEUGE MUG SETOGURO

Pottery from the Momoyama period is also known as "Hikidashi Kuro" (drawer black) or "Tensho Kuro" (Tensho black) due to the firing method and the era in which it was fired. One of its defining features is its glossy, deep, jet-black glaze, which is so opaque that the color of the base material is not visible.

 In order to create a Setoguro ware that can be used widely on the modern dining table, we used modern glaze mixtures and techniques rather than the same techniques as in the past to achieve a glossy, truly jet black color. Enjoy the contrast between the unique black-on-black tableware and the colorful ingredients.

Mug with a unique shape that has a narrow waist. It has a solid sense of stability like a teacup at a sushi restaurant, but is light. The handles are individually hand-kneaded and are a little thicker than normal ones so that they can be held tightly.
