This Bizen Green Mug is an everyday mug for coffee or tea.

Handcrafted by skilled artisans in Japan, each piece is considered a functional work of art. Crafted from pottery, it carries the mark of true craftsmanship. Inspired by Japanese pottery traditions, it's designed for morning routines.

This piece draws on the Bizen tradition (備前), one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns, known for unglazed stoneware fired for long periods in a wood-burning kiln, relying entirely on natural ash and flame for its color. Learn more about the techniques and traditions behind Japanese ceramics.

The details

About this piece

A mug for the slow part of the day. The weight, the glaze and the feel of the rim are what turn an everyday cup into one you reach for.

The material

Pottery is made from earthier clay than porcelain, with a warmer, more tactile body. The glaze pools and breaks over it, so you can see and feel the clay beneath.

Its character

Glazes and decoration vary slightly from piece to piece, so yours may differ a little from the photograph. That is part of how ceramics are made.

It belongs to the Bizen (備前) tradition. See where it comes from.

Our story

The fire of stone

Ishi no KA means “the fire of stone”: the place where raw earth meets heat and becomes something lasting.

We choose each piece in Tokyo, working with kilns and workshops across Japan, and we keep their small natural variations, because imperfection is the mark of a human hand.
