A scarlet scene from Bizen

As it has been since ancient times, Bizen ware is produced from natural clay and fire. The scarlet landscape drawn by the rice straw and flames is suffused with a vivid and rustic hue, inviting a nostalgic feeling like watching a sunset. Enjoy the soft texture that Bizen clay brings to a good drink.
