Rustic Shigaraki Ware Artisan Mug

Discover the raw, organic beauty of this Handmade Shigaraki Ware Ceramic Mug. Hailing from the historic ceramic region of Shigaraki in Japan, this mug embodies the spirit of wabi-sabi—finding beauty in imperfection and impermanence. Its robust, earthy body and the unique, heavily textured volcanic-style glaze make every piece a one-of-a-kind work of art.
