Blue Bizen Coffee Set

This is a blue Bizen coffee set by Miki Suzuki, the eldest son of veteran ceramic artist Koichi Suzuki, who captivates pottery enthusiasts with his unique and stylish works. Suzuki-sensei's simple and sharp forms are further accentuated by the blue Bizen firing process. The composition, which omits even the variations of sesame glaze and earthy textures to focus solely on a blue-gray surface with gray and black *hidasuki* (fire-cord) markings, is incredibly chic and would suit an urban interior. With a style suitable for both men and women, this set is perfect as a gift. Paper box
