Inside the cup, you can see extremely fine Tobi-Goma—known as Mijin-Goma—appearing like soft rain falling on parched white clay, creating a calming impression.

Freely exploring new techniques without being bound by tradition, the artist challenges ancient aesthetics with the latest firing knowledge.

The style is a thorough pursuit of the simple combination of Goma and clay color, the ultimate system of Bizen ware.
