Shigaraki ware is one of the six ancient kilns of Japan, and is made using soil grown in the rich natural environment of Shiga Prefecture. Furuya Pottery takes full advantage of the characteristics of Shigaraki ware. The appeal of Furuya Pottery is in the texture that evokes the warmth of the natural soil, the unique form that can only be achieved by hand, and the fusion of traditional techniques and modern sensibilities.

The glaze and firing methods are also carefully designed, resulting in tableware that develops a deeper flavor the more it is used. Each piece is carefully crafted by artisans, making it a special addition to your dining table.

Notes

Since all of these saucers are handmade, they may have some wobbling, distortion, small holes, or unevenness. In addition, because they are made from natural materials, iron spots (black spots) in the clay, glaze flow, and pinholes may occur. Please understand that these are the characteristics of the product and the result of making the most of natural materials.

Even if we create the same design, no two pieces are exactly the same. There are subtle individual differences between products, but we hope you will enjoy them as the individuality of each piece.

When purchasing multiple pieces, we will try to select pieces that are as similar in appearance as possible, but there may be slight differences in color and shape between the pieces you already own and the newly purchased pieces. We ask that you understand this point before making your purchase.
