Bizen Beerglass

This is a brand-new beer mug, just removed from the kiln by Yoshiteru Koriki, an artist who pursues his own creative vision without pretense, despite having studied under Sozan Kaneshige and Yuho Kaneshige.
This is the latest work, freshly fired in June 2023.

Holding approximately 500ml, this beer mug is perfect for the current season.
Contrary to its solid, substantial appearance, it is finished to be light and easy to handle, allowing for stress-free use.

Featuring the refined character of high-quality rice field clay as its base, this luxurious beer mug is accented with kase-goma (dry sesame glaze) on the exterior and hidaski (fire-cord) markings on the interior. No box
