What is important when creating her pottery is that it feels comfortable in the hand when used in everyday life.
Using soil from Shigaraki, Shiga Prefecture, each piece is shaped by rolling it over with a potter's wheel at her studio in Tokyo. The handles on each mug are individually attached by hand. Each one has a slightly different shape.
Each person has different hand sizes and different cup preferences for drinks, so we hope you can find one that suits you perfectly.
