Bizen Beer Glass

We have received new works from Reiji Omori, an artist who loves earth, loves ceramics, and challenges Bizen ware with deep respect for the potters of the past. This is a premium beer mug that reflects Mr. Omori's signature dedication to clay and the tactile experience of use. The luscious pink clay body is accented with a gold glaze, creating a stunning finish that shimmers brilliantly. It is crafted using mountain clay that he has researched, refined, and fired himself, and it will develop a magnificent patina as it is used over time.
