Sugar Pot L (Green)

Shintaro Enami, a ceramist and artist who has caught FFT's attention. He is a rising artist who, after five years of gaining various experiences as the top apprentice to Tetsuya and Momoko Otani, just became independent from "Otani Tougei" in April of this year. We are delighted that he has fulfilled his long-cherished wish to participate in this exhibition for the first time!

Enami's works feature distinctive flowing line patterns called "shinogi." All are hand-carved, and their elegant and delicate appearance is breathtaking. His pottery wheel technique is also, as expected, superb.

The works are light, fit comfortably in the hand, and have excellent weight balance. While sophisticated in form, the pieces, imbued with the soft expression of curves, seem to embody the aroma of coffee and will surely lead your coffee break to a richer experience.

Diameter: Approx. 10cm / Height: Approx. 11.5cm (including lid)

As these are artisanal works, there may be individual differences in glaze, color, and size.

[Care Instructions]
This pottery is absorbent, so its texture will change with the moisture and oil from food. Since it is prone to staining, it is recommended to avoid dark-colored dishes until the entire surface has absorbed oil. As it is used more, it will develop more character, so we hope you enjoy this change. If you are concerned, try soaking it in water for about 10 minutes before use. This will prevent staining and odors to some extent, and it will gradually develop its unique character.
