[Jinshu Mogake Flat Teapot] [Shinohara Takashi Wood-fired Teapot] (Customer Message) I wanted to thank you for these kyusu, each different but wonderful in their own way. The feel to the touch of the white clay is remarkably pleasurable. Jinshu Page Shinohara Takashi Page  

[Shinohara Takashi Suzu-yaki Wood-fired Pitcher] (Customer Message)  I really love the feelings of tranquility and zen this pitcher evokes.  The overall color of the ware is really beautiful, especially the light green shade on the pitcher’s lip, which is reminiscent of moss growing on a stone.  The shape is also really soothing and pleasant to look at, and it definitely uses the wabi-sabi concept to amazing effect. My one criticism would be that the pitcher gets very hot to the touch, but it still otherwise functions very well despite that. Shinohara Takashi Page  

(Customer Message) I received my package this evening. Thank you for packing them so carefully. They’re totally safe and amazing.  I was so excited when I opened the wood boxes. When the pottery came out, their shapes ,color, weight and the rich texture on the surfaces were touched me very much. They are on the table now with still and calm. Thanks for Mr. Shinohara Takashi’s master‘s pieces. I will be his fan forever. Shinohara Takashi Page

  (Customer Message) Mr. Shinohara’s teapot and Takeshi Furukawa’s teacup have been well received. The real products look more beautiful though they  were very attractive in the pictures of your homepage. The teacup with the oil drops is mesmerizing and somehow.

Wood Fired SUZU-YAKI Black & Ash Cup Shinohara Takashi  (Customer Message) I just couldn’t resist the beauty. I thought about the cup a lot and I just had to buy it. The natural, simple beauty, the moss-like glazing from the pine ash on the black surface was just too stunning. I love the withered architecture of old Shinto and Buddhist temples in Japan, the old woodwork, the moss in the forests and on the graves leading to Okunoin on Koyasan. This great Suzu Yaki cup, created by SHINOHARA TAKASHI 篠原敬 reminds me of the mystic, withered natural beauty of the...

  (Customer Message) Since I received Mr. Shinohara’s works a few weeks ago, I have kept thinking why his works are appealing in a gentle yet longstanding way. To me, each of them is unique as each of them has a voice of the nature. His tea cups have been used for several times, for tea or water drinking, I feel that, in subtle ways, the cups soften and enrich the substance of the liquid inside. This is a new experience for me, so I look very much forward to meeting new products of Mr. Shinohara in Jan or Feb. ...
