5 out of 5 starsThere is much to like about this mug. The five-sided form gives interesting and attractive dimensions. The overall finish is excellent, and the mug has a pleasant, unusually comfortable feel in hand. The handle is quite comfortable as well. The accent of teal stripes is just right. It is beautiful work that represents a commitment to excellence.
Communication with shop and shipping were great.
Thank-you -

5 out of 5 starsExcellent craftsmanship on this sweet mug!
Nice form, perfectly weighted, comfortable handle & appreciate the smooth foot, too. Also enjoy the rustic look of the makers marks combined with soda fired glaze effects. :) I’ll be enjoying it for years to come! Thanks for the quick & secure packaging/ shipping too. 👍 -

5 out of 5 starsThis yunomi has a modern block design (couldn't resist the red underglaze). It is always a wonder that this started out as raw clay; the finish on Tom's work has a buttery smooth feel and adds to the beauty of each piece.

Frequently asked questions
Can I see the inside or another view of a pot?
Yes. We don't take a lot of photos of an individual piece because every one of our pots needs to be photographed separately. If you need to see another angle before purchasing just message us.
