Description

This exquisite Arita-yaki yunomi showcases the fukizumi technique and serves as the perfect complement to our fukizumi houhin. Made from fine porcelain, this yunomi features a captivating design of vibrant blue splatters against a pristine white background.

The method of fukizumi sometimes involves filling a thin pipe with paint and blowing it onto the surface to add color, but there are also alternative techniques that utilize a brush or fingers. Our Fukizumi Houhin, for example, is beautifully colored by flicking ink with fingers, showcasing the mastery of this craft.

About Arita-yaki

Arita-yaki is a type of Japanese porcelain ware that is said to have originated in 1616 when Korean artisan Lee Sanpei discovered kaolin clay in Arita, Japan. This rare white clay, which transforms into porcelain when fired at high temperatures, allowed Japan to produce porcelain for the first time. Known for its high quality, Arita-yaki became highly prized both in Japan and Europe, where it was exported by the Dutch East India Company. Its influence on European ceramics, including the renowned Meissen porcelain, has made Arita-yaki a significant part of ceramic history.

About Risogama 

Established in 1897 on land that once belonged to Lee Sanpei, the father of Arita-yaki, Risogama incorporates the kanji "Ri" from Lee’s name as a tribute to his influence. Now run by fourth-generation president Shinji Terauchi, Risogama emphasizes creating pottery that connects personally with users. Shinji’s philosophy of “listening to the voices of the users” drives the company’s mission to craft high-quality, meaningful Arita-yaki that bridges tradition and innovation.
