Hand-thrown, wood-fired, beautifully imperfect traditional Japanese pottery


This eye-catching, one-of-a-kind sake flask, fired in the world's longest pottery kiln, is a sophisticated addition to any collection. Vessels are hand-thrown and glazed naturally by layers of red-pine ash falling and melting onto them like snow. This tokkuri pairs beautifully with Tsugaru Ujo-yaki's rustic guinomi sake cups, or can be mix-and-matched with Tazen's copper sakazuki to create an eye-catching sake set.

Studio: Tsugaru Ujo-yaki
