The highlight is the magnificent kiln-altered appearance, featuring a well-fired, glossy black surface generously coated in *goma* (ash glaze). It is neither too small nor too large; this versatile size makes it a perfect gift that is sure to please anyone. The design is full of the originality characteristic of Baba-sensei, such as the uniquely carved, meandering foot.\n\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 9.0cm × Diameter 8.9cm × Height 9.4cm\n\nTakashi Baba was born in 1983 as the eldest son of Bizen ware artist Shosuke Baba.
