Kazuki Hitomi Small Dish Black Porcelain ⚪︎ Approximately 10.8cm high, 6.8cm wide ⚪︎ Microwave safe This is not matte; it's a glossy type. Purchased 2-3 years ago. I'm unsure if I used it once after washing it. It was stored on a shelf without a door. I don't see any cracks or chips. There may be some water stain marks. ⚫︎ This item features a unique texture created by intentionally scratching the glossy surface. It's difficult to see in the photos, but random scratches are drawn on the front side of the black surface. They are not applied to the inside. The scratches don't show well in the photos, so please refer to the photos of the mug by the same artist, which is also for sale, for an idea of the texture. ⚫︎ At first glance, it looks completely black, but when held up to the light, there are shades of black, and areas with hints of green and white. There are variations in the glaze, crazing, air bubbles, and white spots, which add to its character. This is a piece with strong individual differences. We hope you enjoy the characteristics and charm of handmade items. Shipping included: ¥750. If there's any shipping cost savings when purchasing multiple items, I will deduct it. Please comment. #Artistware #Artistceramics ...The following is a quote... This piece is made by intentionally scratching the surface after firing, creating an appearance like stones picked up from a river.
