{"product_id":"nabeshima-celadon-sake-bottle-with-crackle-glaze","title":"Nabeshima Crackle Celadon Tokkuri – Sake Carafe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinding Detail in a Celadon Glaze\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImari, in Saga Prefecture, is one of Japan’s historic centres of ceramic production. Within this region, Okawachiyama developed as the home of the Nabeshima domain’s kilns, making refined vessels for presentation to the shogun’s household. Its ceramic culture grew around close attention to materials, shape and the smallest details of a finished piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNabeshima Kosen Kiln continues this tradition in Okawachiyama, creating vessels for contemporary life. Its celadon is rooted in the natural mineral resources of the surrounding area. The blue-green glaze offers a way to appreciate the region through colour: a quiet surface whose depth becomes more noticeable as light moves across it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKannyu describes the fine crackle visible in the glazed surface. The lines form a pattern that differs from piece to piece. Rather than adding a painted image, this finish lets the glaze itself supply the detail you see when the carafe is held close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carafe holds approximately 270 ml at a practical serving level. Its quietly patterned surface offers a different expression from the smooth-glazed version, giving you a choice between an uninterrupted field of colour and the fine detail of crackle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlace it with matching cups and a few dishes to share. Pouring a little at a time gives the vessel an active place in the meal: lifted, passed and returned to the table. The pleasure lies as much in these small movements and the conversation around them as in the sake itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nabeshima Kosen Kiln","offers":[{"title":"Diameter 70mm × Height 150mm \/ 211g \/ Approximately 300ml (full) 270ml (appropriate amount\/1.5 cups)","offer_id":48289638252715,"sku":null,"price":113.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8843\/7419\/files\/IMG_6268_1d7d21c7-44ec-4ee0-be86-9ace5d050ad1.jpg?v=1794385285","url":"https:\/\/rakudajapan.com\/en-au\/products\/nabeshima-celadon-sake-bottle-with-crackle-glaze","provider":"RAKUDA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
