Fine iron particles appear beneath the surface, lending a quiet depth that is at once subtle and mineral-like in its strength.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThough somewhat refined in form, the rim retains a natural wavering softness, while the lower body preserves the rustic character of the clay. The clay body, blended with a slight amount of porcelain stone, produces highly distinctive kiln effects. The slightly elevated foot, reminiscent of Joseon ceramics, as well as the crepe-like texture within the foot ring, are also among the highlights of the piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe scenery—where hints of green and red seep through the black—calls to mind a nebula suspended in dark space, or mineral strata revealed across the surface of a planet. It is a profound and quietly powerful chawan, holding a deep strength within its stillness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDiameter 13.3cm\/Height 8.6cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the original signed wooden box and matching cloth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e(We will ship within 3 business days after completing your order.)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYou can add a digital certificate to this product for free.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you wish, please select \"Attach a CERT (digital certificate)\" from the tab below.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kamatotsuchi.com\/pages\/startbahncert\" title=\"What is the blockchain certificate “Startbahn Cert.”\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClick here for information on CERT (digital certificate).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kamatotsuchi.com\/blogs\/kamatotsuchi\/mikemartino\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eClick here for an interview with Michael Martino\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kamatotsuchi.com\/collections\/mikemartino\"\u003eClick here for a list of Michael Martino's works\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"窯と土～Kama-to-tsuchi～","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47101093150891,"sku":null,"price":4889.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0563\/0630\/3147\/files\/DSC_3025_93e56b2b-b3c0-4b3c-843e-e8caf450da5a.jpg?v=1779418668","url":"https:\/\/kamatotsuchi.com\/en-hk\/products\/chuwan06en","provider":"窯と土～Kama-to-tsuchi～","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
