• White sake cup with wooden box. The box is tied with dark navy strings and this is a traditional way of wrapping pottery.
  • The side view of the cup on the wooden table at Kondo's back yard. It's stunning look in nature.
  • Kondo is holding the cup at his back yard. The cup looks so beautiful with wood table.
  • The view of the bottom of the cup on the wood table. Wabi sabi feeling.
  • The close-up of the surface of the cup. The colors, patterns and kannyu (cracked glaze on purpose) are perfect. Kondo's skills are amazing.

This Sourai (the sound of autumn wind) sake cup with an elevated base is rare, and because of its shape, it is not only easy to hold but also very stylish. Clay is refined from the soil surrounding Kondo's studio in Gifu, which is surrounded by pristine nature. The clay is fired while maintaining the fire day and night for four days. The artist’s image of the beautiful black dots and lava-like flows on the surface was realized after many trials and prototypes. It is a one-of-a-kind gem.
