The palm-sized, egg-shaped bowl is also a long running series of monohanako. You can use them for pickles, seasonings, nuts, or olives. At home we use this bowl to make a savory steamed egg dish called chawanmushi.
Since I started living in Maine, I became particularly intrigued by the color blue. There, the air is clear and the light enriches the colors of nature. The color of the sea and sky are ever changing.
This color varies depending on its location in the kiln and I gave it the American name Blue Jeans to celebrate the wide variety of shades. It’s an unusual color and well loved.
Hanako makes each piece by hand, one by one. Slight variations in size, shape, color, and surface are inherent to the process. We hope you will embrace these small differences as characteristics that give each piece individuality and character, making them all the more lovable.
