Shira Hagi Teacup
Shira Hagi Teacup
This simple design of this cup allows Senryuzan Kiln's white ash glaze to be on full display. This type of design is perfect for enjoying Hagi yaki's nanabake process, also called the "Seven Disguises of Hagi yaki". Even after firing, Hagi yaki remains porous and absorbent, allowing tea and other liquids to seep into the pores of the clay, changing the colour of each piece over time. After you buy a piece, you still have a lot to look forward to.

Senryuzan Kiln
For nearly 200 years, Senryuzan Kiln has been a custodian of traditional Japanese ceramic craft. The small collective of artists honours the traditional spirit and cultures of Hagi yaki.
Each Senryuzan Kiln vessel is crafted using traditional Hagi yaki clays, techniques and ash glazes before being wood fired in their climbing kiln.
Every piece represents their traditional approach to Hagi yaki.
