Features of this piece

This Shino (志野) small plate holds the traditional beauty of the ware in a quiet balance of fire color (火色 hi-iro) and milky white. The fire color glows like a Japanese sunset against the white, a small landscape set upon the table.
With food arranged on it, the colors deepen—the plate and the ingredients meeting in easy harmony—and as the meal goes on, the graceful contrast of ember and white reveals itself little by little. Even once the plate is empty, that sunset lingers, calling to mind the gentle scenery of Japan.
A fusion of tradition and the maker’s hand, it brings a quiet richness to everyday dining—and makes a heartfelt gift for someone special.

Shino

The moment of change

Shino is an elusive vessel that was created for only a brief period in the tea world over 450 years ago. It was fired in large kilns and anagama kilns from the late 16th century to the early 17th century. The charm of Shino lies in its characteristic appearance of a snow-white surface, created by using feldspar, with a subtle, warm fire color visible within it. Bringing out this beautiful color is extremely difficult due to the need for strong reduction firing, where the kiln temperature does not easily rise, necessitating constant temperature adjustments day and night. The kiln firing lasts for more than seven days, conducted under extremely harsh conditions, requiring careful attention. The outcome varies significantly with the seasons and climate, demanding a level of delicacy that allows for no moment of inattention. The color of Shino leaves an impression like "the soil seen after the snow melts" or "a beautiful sunset formed by clouds and the setting sun." Capturing and expressing the fleeting natural beauty without any preconceived ideas or intentions, Shino continues to captivate people's hearts, both now and in the past.
