A Shigaraki Ware Bowl Featuring Numerous Beautifully Carved "Shinogi" Patterns

Masunori Yamamoto's "Shinogi Meshiwan Large White" is a beautiful piece of pottery that blends the tradition of Shigaraki ware with Masunori Yamamoto's unique contemporary design.

The numerous delicately carved "shinogi" patterns are meticulously etched one by one by hand, adding color to the entire piece. While sized as a rice bowl, it can also be used as a soup cup for hearty miso soup, pot-au-feu, or other stews.

Because it is handmade, there are individual differences in color and carving, and as it is used, it gains depth and luster, making it a unique piece that you can enjoy for its one-of-a-kind texture. 

Dining with Masunori Yamamoto's stylish pottery is sure to make your everyday life more cherished.

*As each item is handmade, there may be slight individual differences.
*The black spots on the piece are naturally occurring iron particles in the clay that have oxidized during firing. This is part of its unique character, so please compare the expressions of each piece and feel the differences.
