Kasama ware, dating back approximately 250 years to the An'ei period of the Edo period, has continued to thrive today, using the same molding, glazing, and firing techniques. Each piece is handcrafted with a shinogi (ridged) pattern, created by scraping the surface with a spatula or other tool. The ridges, created by scraping away the surface, create a three-dimensional appearance. The use of a matte glaze preserves the mug's elegance while avoiding a rough, textured appearance, resulting in a stylish, yet inorganic appearance.
