Yakishime Unglazed Stoneware Cup (Guinomi)

$300.00

Guinomi Yakishime created by Satoru Hoshino

This yakishime stoneware cup is hand-formed and fired at high temperatures without glaze, allowing clay, ash, and fire to define its final surface. The result is a quietly expressive vessel with a soft, granular texture and subtle tonal variation that emerges naturally during firing.

Its gently irregular rim and rounded, grounded form reflect a wabi-sabi sensibility—beauty found in restraint, asymmetry, and material honesty. The unglazed surface carries a calm tactility, warming in the hand and revealing depth through texture rather than shine.

Equally suited for sake, tea, or contemplative daily use, this cup also stands confidently as a sculptural object. Whether presented individually or as a set, it resonates with modern European minimalism while remaining rooted in Japanese ceramic tradition.

Each piece is unique, shaped by chance and fire rather than repetition.

Details:

  • Unglazed, high-fired stoneware (yakishime)

  • Size: 2 ¼” (h) x 2 ½” (w) diameter 2” approximately

  • Natural ash effects; each piece is one of a kind

  • Minimalist, wabi-sabi aesthetic

  • Functional and decorative use

  • The listed price is for each piece
