Karatsu ware | Naoki Kojima | Korea Karatsu sake cup [one-of-a-kind item]

Korean karatsu is characterized by the beautiful contrast between the black and white glazes, which are created by applying the kuroame glaze (iron black glaze) and the straw ash glaze (cloudy white glaze) separately. The shiny pooling of the glaze and the shimmering blotches where the glazes are mixed with each other can also be enjoyed as scenery. The white exterior of the sake cups allows the color of the sake to shine through, making them pleasing to the eye as well. The more you use the sake cup, the more it will change and develop its flavor. Please enjoy the process of growing and changing.
