Adorable Expression
A bear with a blank expression and an open mouth. Its somewhat talkative expression is so endearing that just looking at it brings a sense of calm and healing.
Ancient Essence
She loves the shapes of creatures and decorated creatures from ancient Orient and Jomon periods, and is drawn to their enigmatic expressions and unintentional humor. One can feel an inexpressible cuteness, as if ancient and modern essences are blended together.
Joyful Just by Looking
The painting has a unique warmth, like a woodblock print or a rubber stamp. She says she constantly observes the various movements and expressions of bears at a bear farm. Perhaps this strong curiosity is what gives birth to such ineffably charming expressions.
Adorably Decorate Your Table
The bears adorning the rim, which make you involuntarily chuckle, further enhance the cuteness of the bear. It's perfect for any dessert, such as cake, pudding, or ice cream.
As each item is handmade, there may be individual differences in color, shape, thickness, size, weight, glaze unevenness/pooling, stone pitting, slight wobbling, and subtle differences in patterns. Additionally, some items may have variations in glaze application, crazing, pinholes, or iron spots (black dots), but these do not affect usability. Please enjoy these as unique characteristics of handmade craftsmanship. While you cannot choose which item you will receive, we hope you will look forward to its arrival. If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us, and we can email you additional photos before shipping.

| Recommended Care and Precautions from Mikiko Kato |
| 〇 The "medome" (sealing) process has been completed, so it can be used as is. 〇 Kohiki (powdered clay) pottery is composed of three layers: clay, slip, and glaze, making it prone to chipping by nature. Please be careful not to bump the rim when handling. |
| Understanding "Tableware" |
|
〇 As each piece is handmade, there will be individual differences in color, shape, pattern, size, thickness, and weight. Also, even with the same glaze and clay, there will be variations in color and shade. 〇 Since each painting is hand-drawn, the expressions may differ. 〇 Depending on the manufacturing process, some products may have small holes, small black dots, scratches, protrusions, pinholes, wobbles, or distortions. 〇 We strive to process images to show colors as close to the real product as possible; however, colors and textures may appear different depending on your computer or smartphone display. 〇 We deliver products that have passed not only the inspection of the manufacturer, kiln, or artist but also our own final inspection. 〇 Product photos are samples, so the item you receive will not be identical in every detail. 〇 We do not accept returns or exchanges due to customer convenience. Please understand and acknowledge this before purchasing. 〇 We hope you will enjoy the "flavor" and "interest" unique to handmade items, which are not found in mass-produced factory goods! |
