Mug Cup - Southern Tamandua by Takunobu Sawada

Vessels that convey the warmth of handcrafted work

The animal designs are not drawn with a brush but are created by scraping off the slip-ware base.

Each line has movement, resulting in a unique and warm artistry.

Takunobu Sawada, whose father is a Kyo-yaki/Kiyomizu-yaki potter, has been familiar with pottery since childhood and already has 20 years of experience in pottery making.

He is a craftsman with solid skills, reaching the level of a veteran in his 30s.

Sawada-san, with his youthful sensibility and refined skills, creates unique vessels that are distinctly Kyoto-style.

Please experience their charm in your daily life.
