It is a tea ceremony tool that guests shake to extract the contents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe surface is created by applying a pattern to the clay, then searing it with a burner, causing the clay to expand and crumble, creating a natural expression. White glaze is then applied over it, resulting in a unique design with a white and black contrast. Because the white and black contrast resembles zebra patterns, this series is named the ZEBRA (ZB) series. Blue glaze is then added, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a microcosm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be formally used at tea ceremonies, but also enjoyed as a small art piece that adds sophistication to any space, whether integrated into daily life as a container for konpeito, nuts, or accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp data-start=\"62\" data-end=\"146\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e※As each item is unique, the pattern may vary slightly from piece to piece.
