・There may be black dots on the surface of the glaze and reddish tinges on the base, but this is due to the iron powder in the kiln and the iron content in the soil. There is no problem in use and part of its charm.

・There may be small cracks (penetration) on the surface at the time of purchase, and there may be cases where penetration occurs during use, but there is no problem in using it.

・Intrusion occurs because the shrinkage rate of the clay and the glaze is different when the vessel cools and shrinks for about a month after coming out of the kiln. When it penetrates, you will hear a small high-pitched "kin" sound. The sound gradually disappears, but the penetration continues. Please enjoy the intrusive sound like a metallophone at the beginning of use.
