Susumuya mug large
£55.00

These tea cups and mugs were developed in collaboration between Oji Masanori and Susumuya tea-house, working alongside Imamura Hajime of Imamura Porcelain, Arita, Japan. Made of Amakusa Touseki - porcelain stone mined from the mountains of the Amakusa region, the interior carries a simple clear ash glaze, whilst the outside has a finish called ‘kuro-gosu’, being left with a red iron underglaze which turns a deep even black on firing like the teapot, a porous finish which will develop a unique lustre with use and time. The large mug measures approximately 115mm by 100mm.
