Hozan Kiln Sangiri Bizen Ware Large Mug

Sale price$89.00

This large Sangiri Bizen ware mug by Hozan Kiln celebrates the beauty of natural ash glazing, a hallmark of Bizen pottery. During the firing process, ash settles on the clay, creating captivating gradients of earthy browns, smoky greys, and soft highlights that evoke a serene, natural landscape.

The mug’s generous form is both sturdy and elegant, with its smooth curves providing a comfortable hold. The unglazed surface invites you to feel the raw texture of the clay, while the subtle sheen of sangiri patterns adds depth and character. A versatile companion for your daily coffee or tea, this piece will develop a unique patina over time, reflecting the moments it shares with you.

Meet the Artisan

Hozan Kiln

Bizen pottery, one of Japan's oldest and most revered ceramic traditions, traces its roots back over a thousand years. Originating in the Bizen region of Okayama Prefecture, this distinctive pottery style flourished alongside the development of Japanese tea culture. Bizen ware's unique characteristics are deeply rooted in the natural properties of the local clay and the traditional firing techniques employed by skilled artisans.

Today, Bizen ware stands as a symbol of Japanese cultural heritage, revered for its rustic beauty, timeless simplicity, and the deep connection it fosters between nature, art, and everyday life. Hozan Kiln, home to a direct descendant of one of the six original surnames of Bizen Pottery, continues the traditions of this pottery style to this day.
