Mug by Akira Kawano

A Hagi-yaki mug by Akira Kawano featuring the quiet, wabi-sabi beauty the tradition is known for. The soft, milky glaze is layered with gentle washes of pale blue, pink, and green, creating a watercolor-like surface that feels calm and organic. Subtle variations in texture and tone—along with evidence of the hand at the foot and handle give the mug warmth, individuality, and a sense of everyday poetry, perfect for slow tea or coffee moments.
