Mug Cup - Orca by Takunobu Sawada

Pottery that conveys the warmth of handcrafted work

The animal patterns are not drawn with a brush but are created by scraping off the kohiki (slip) from the surface.

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

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

At just 30 years old, he is a craftsman with solid skills, already reaching the level of a veteran.

Mr. Sawada, with his fresh sensibility and refined skills, creates unique Kyoto-style vessels.

We invite you to experience their charm in your daily life.

Comment from the Owner

This is a practical mug with a generous capacity.

The handle is large and wide, fitting securely in your hand for excellent grip.

The animal designs, covering the entire vessel, are all very expressive and captivating.
