Ruri-Glazed Katakuchi (Naoto Yano)
22,000Yen(Tax Included)
Inspired by late Joseon dynasty ruri-glazed works, this katakuchi is shaped with a sensibility uniquely its own. The deeply luminous ruri surface is adorned with incised floral motifs that lend a gentle, lingering accent. Honoring the spirit of ancient ceramics while embracing a contemporary aesthetic, the piece functions as a sake vessel yet quietly embodies the beauty of utility.
