The warmth of the smooth and soft glaze welcomes a gentle embrace from hands cupping the base. This raku tea bowl has a signature lightness, cylindrical body, and soft touch. Since it is a low-fire bowl retains the heat and will not burn your hands. Notice the glossy glaze and rounded edges. Gently tap on the side and listen to the pleasing 'thunk' sound.
