Description

This katakuchi sake carafe showcases a delicate kannyu "crackle" pattern—naturally formed fine cracks on the glaze surface during firing. By carefully balancing the clay and glaze, intricate crackles emerge on the surface. The soft pink hue is achieved using Zoho Kiln's signature red pigment, created through three years of meticulous grinding. The fine pigment seeps into every crevice of the kannyu, and after wiping, it leaves behind a gentle, pale pink finish.

Elegant yet functional, this carafe is perfect for serving cold sake or pouring sauces, bringing subtle artistry to everyday moments. Its graceful form also makes it ideal for presenting side dishes like aemono, dressed salads.

Pink

Pink is frequently linked with emotions such as love, care, maturity, and romance. Pink tableware uniquely captures these feelings, evoking a sense of warmth and sweetness that reflects the essence of blossoms and the emotions they inspire.

In Japan, the color pink is deeply connected to the beauty of spring. Known as sakura iro, "cherry blossom color," it embodies the hue of spring sunlight shining on blooming cherry trees. Deeper in color than sakura iro is momo zome, the vibrant pink of peach blossoms. Another popular shade is nadeshiko iro, a pink with a slight lean towards purple, named after dianthus flowers, featured in the classic Japanese poetry anthology the Manyoshu.
