Description

This piece features a Sōgyo (grass carp) motif delicately carved using the kakiotoshi technique—
a hallmark of Toukoubou Yu’s meticulous craftsmanship.
A final layer of ash glaze is applied, creating a subtle two-tone contrast between warm white and soft gray.
Its quiet, understated aesthetic translates directly into excellent usability.
The thinly crafted rim and refined, compact form are both elegant and practical.
Rather than a cold, stark white, the piece exudes a soft and inviting warmth.
It beautifully balances the clean, refined clarity typical of white slipware with a subdued, rustic depth—
a harmony of purity and quiet wabi-sabi.
