Handcrafted by potter Yoshiyuki Shimizu in Dōsenbō, Kyoto, this cylindrical yunomi features a rich iron glaze with deep, earthy tones and subtle variations in color and texture. The expressive surface reveals the natural interaction of clay, minerals, and fire, reflecting Shimizu's sensitivity to materials and his appreciation for the quiet beauty of functional objects.
The tall, straight-sided form, known as tsutsu, offers a comfortable presence in the hands while helping retain the warmth of the tea. Particularly well suited for enjoying Japanese green teas and houjicha, its restrained silhouette and tactile surface invite a deeper appreciation of the everyday ritual of tea. Each piece possesses a distinct character, balancing simplicity, warmth, and timeless utility.
