Kyoto Ware, Kiyomizu Ware, Touan Kiln, Tea Cup, Flower Crystal (light Blue On White Background), Kta586-01

Kyo-yaki (Kiyomizu ware) is one of Kyoto's most representative traditional crafts. Its name is said to derive from the many kilns, including those of Kiyomizu Rokubei and Takahashi Michihachi, located around Gojozaka, the approach to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The crystalline glaze creates a rich and varied appearance. The light blue coloring around the base gives the vessel a refreshing impression. Due to the handcrafted and hand-painted nature of the work, slight variations in size, color, and pattern may occur.
