This item is a pair set of mugs featuring the striking AMI Cobalt and Amber designs.
They come in a gift box with wrapping, making them an excellent choice as a special present for someone important.
These mugs are handcrafted by Takanobu Sawada, who runs his studio in the scenic countryside of Nantan, Kyoto, Japan.
The AMI series is known for its modern and bold expression in Japanese pottery, reflecting both tradition and innovation.
Each piece is carefully shaped and carved for usability, with a striking net-like design where cobalt blue and amber tones emerge against the surface.
The glossy black glaze contrasts beautifully with the vivid colors, creating a bold look that becomes more familiar and enjoyable with daily use.
Born into a family of Kyo ware and Kiyomizu ware potters, Sawada developed a strong passion for ceramics from an early age. With over 20 years of experience, he now brings both youthful creativity and seasoned skill to his work.
His handmade Kyoto ceramics combine originality with traditional craftsmanship, making them unique works of art to enjoy in daily life.
