Please note that due to the nature of the "kannyu" technique, over time, the colors of food and drink may seep into the porous glaze material. However, you can reduce this effect by soaking or dampening the bowl with water before use. In Japan, it is common to enjoy the gradual changes in color and patina that come with the use and aging of ceramics. Please keep this in mind when making your purchase.
