{"product_id":"p2960","title":"Bizen Beer Mug","description":"This beer mug is the work of Shusaku Taku, who shapes the experiences of daily life into form, using the yeast of his inspiration to create Bizen ware—a craft that has matured alongside the continuous activities of people throughout history. The clay was not kneaded into a homogeneous mixture, but rather fired while retaining its marbled pattern. The rim is adorned with a brilliantly colored \"hidasuki\" (fire-cord) mark, serving as a perfect transition between the \"goma\" (ash glaze) and the earthy marbled texture. The rim is crafted to be very thin, promising a crisp pour that will make this mug a great companion for the upcoming season.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/takusyusaku.tokusyu.php\"\u003eInterview with Shusaku Taku\u003c\/a\u003e\n\nNo box included\u003cbr\u003e\nDiameter 8.1cm × 8.0cm × Height 15.8cm\n\nShusaku Taku was born in 1980 as the eldest son of Mamoru Taku.
