This is a Hekisai mug by Dainichigama of Kiyomizu-yaki and Kyo-yaki ware.

The contrast between the blue glaze and the scarlet glaze, which reminds us of the sky and the sea, is beautiful.
The flowing pattern of the glaze gives a change to the cup.

The Persian blue that seems to melt into the matted skin is a cool vessel.

The way the glaze flows down and sinks into the bowl.
It shows a rich expression by the action of the kiln fire.

The blue glaze, which reminds us of the sky and the sea, contrasts beautifully with the scarlet glaze, and the flowing glaze adds to the atmosphere.
The bottom of this mug is wide and stable.

The fire color of the skin color and the marks to prevent sticking are also scenic.

It is a simple mug, but the more you use it, the more the color changes. The more you use it, the more you will love it.
