Pinholes


When bisque-fired, air trapped in the clay body or organic matter (such as dust) may remain as tiny holes after firing. These small holes are called pinholes. A visual specialty of pottery, these do not effect the quality of the product, and there is no need for further concern when used.

Individual Variation


The appearance of the pattern may vary depending on how the glaze has flowed or how the pattern was imprinted. Each piece carries its own subtle expression, shaped naturally through the making process.

Iron Inclusions


Clay used for pottery contains various natural elements such as iron and microorganisms. During firing, these components may appear as small black spots on the surface. Each piece has been carefully inspected and meets our quality standards.
