About the line: Made in the 350 year old Touetsugama porcelain kiln (but intended by their designer, Oji Masanori, to be used and loved everyday) these delicate-seeming pieces are the perfect mixture of classic porcelain artistry and a modern sensibility. While porcelain is often considered fancy or fussy, it's actually historically prized for its extreme hardness and strength. That classic, diamond-hard quality is combined with a warm, lustrous, alabaster glaze, and exquisite pared-down silhouettes that feel straight out of a Buddhist temple (or the potting shelf of your dreams) for beautiful, functional pieces that feel as wonderful in hand as they look on your table.
