Shigaraki ware originated in the 13th century Kamakura period and is known for its high-quality clay extracted from the ancient Lake Biwa layer, which is approximately 4 million years old. This flower vase features a reddish-brown base characteristic of Shigaraki, with a yellow-green glaze flowing from the top. The way the glaze drips naturally with gravity creates a unique appearance, with no two pieces being the same. The ears on both sides combine practicality for carrying with decorative purposes. The wide mouth and rounded body exude the warmth and strength of Shigaraki ware's clay. Unused, this item retains its original texture. It has been stored in its box and is in good condition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e Recommended uses\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe simple texture of Shigaraki ware enhances the beauty of branches and wildflowers when used as a flower vase.
