Ships from Japan.

Arrives in a wooden gift box (paulownia kiribako-style) brushed with 「九谷焼 茶碗」 calligraphy + red 「遊」 workshop seal on the lid.

Includes the Kutani-yaki METI-designated Traditional Craft brochure documenting the ware lineage.

Fragile item additionally packed with protective wrapping and cushioning for safe international delivery from Japan.

Hand-wash ONLY with mild detergent and a soft sponge or cloth.

Do NOT use the dishwasher — alkaline detergent strips overglaze 色絵 (iroe) enamels.

Do NOT use the microwave (manufacturer-confirmation not provided for either microwave or dishwasher safety).

Avoid sudden temperature changes (do not pour boiling water onto a cold bowl).

Dry thoroughly before storing back in the wooden gift box.

Because each piece is hand-thrown and hand-painted, slight variations in glaze tone, iron-fleck pattern, brush stroke placement, and rim asymmetry are inherent to the workshop's wabi-sabi aesthetic — they are not defects.
