{"product_id":"p1515","title":"Bizen Hidasuki Teacup","description":"This is a new *hidasuki* (fire-cord) teacup by Kazuki Nakamura, an artist whose work carries on the profound aesthetic legacy of his grandfather, the master sake-ware artisan Rokuro Nakamura, and his father, Makoto Nakamura. The cup is perfectly balanced—neither too thick nor too thin—offering an ideal shape that is both easy to handle and practical for everyday use. Its size is well-suited for *shochu* as well, and over time, exposure to alcohol will polish the surface, transforming it into a beautiful, lustrous white skin. The vibrant, glossy *hidasuki* markings are magnificent, their rich color testifying to the quality of the clay and evoking the gentle, fragrant scent of the earth. Furthermore, the slightly tapered rim is designed to concentrate the aromas of your tea or sake.\n\nOriginal signed wooden box (with two-way crossbar)\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 9.8cm × Diameter 9.7cm × Height 8.0cm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/guide_gift.php#a1\"\u003eRegarding gift wrapping\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nKazuki Nakamura was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Makoto Nakamura.
