Handmade Kyoto pottery sake cup

Endless Exploration of Glazes

In his quiet countryside studio in northern Kyoto, Mr. Izumi has dedicated more than fifty years to studying ceramic glazes. Subtle differences in firing temperature and glaze composition create countless variations—each piece of pottery is truly unique. Every handmade vessel reflects his lifelong curiosity and the traditions of Japanese ceramics.
