The distinctive feature of Kawakujira is the black border around the rim. The name Kawakujira comes from the fact that the black rim represents the skin of a whale (back), and the white of the vessel body represents the body of the whale (belly). The fine Kan-nyu(Crackle), Tokin, carvings, and and clay unique to Karatsu ware are also highlights.  The intense astringency of the deep color tones is its greatest appeal. It is slightly smaller than Kojima-sensei's previous works, but has a solid weight. The more you use this sake vessel, the more it will change and become more flavorful. Please enjoy the process of it nurturing and changing.
