STONEWARE CRACKED BLUE TEACUP 15CL

A stoneware wide cup with a crackle glaze finish. Initially taking their inspiration from Chinese and Korean artisans, the Japanese quickly acquired the skills of ceramic art, even adding many of their own techniques. Crackle-glazing, stoneware, porcelain and molten glass techniques have been honed by the country's many skilled craftspeople, based mainly in the Arita region to the south of Kyoto. Hand-made product, the colour may vary slightly in comparison to the photo.
