Kakewake Tobikanna Navy Blue Glaze Porcelain Cup
Kakewake Tobikanna Navy Blue Glaze Porcelain Cup
This captivating Kakewake Tobikanna Navy Blue Glaze Porcelain Cup, handcrafted by the skilled artisans of Soryu Gama, exemplifies the Kiyomizu-ware tradition, renowned for its delicate beauty and innovative techniques. The Tobikanna ("jumping iron") technique utilizes a special tool to create textured patterns on soft clay. As the potter's wheel spins, the tool bounces or "skips" across the surface, leaving behind a series of rhythmic indentations. This adds a unique tactile element and influences the way the glaze adheres, resulting in beautiful variations in color and finish. The design is accentuated by a vibrant brown line pattern, separating the pure white coloring from a stunning navy blue glaze in an eye-catching gradient down the cup.
The cup's comfortable size and easy-to-hold texture make it perfect for enjoying your favorite beverage, whether it's coffee, tea, or even shochu. The dishwasher and microwave-safe design ensures easy cleaning and modern convenience, making it a perfect addition to your everyday drinkware or a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates unique and functional Japanese craftsmanship.
