Then they are \u003c\/span\u003ecovered in an ash and slip glaze and fired in a climbing kiln in an reducing atmosphere, where the ash in the glaze de-vitrifies, producing a beautiful, clouded, streaky effect with fine crazing in shades of milky blue, grey, and even purple.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike most Hagi ware, this piece is porous and will absorb water and tea and change colour over time. Before using it for the first time, it is recommended to soak the piece in water for 10 minutes. This will dislodge any dust from the clay as well as slow down the natural development of patina in the glaze. Slowing the staining process allows the colour change to progress naturally and beautifully. With each subsequent, we suggest rinsing the cup with hot water.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Senryūzan Kiln","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51209768173820,"sku":"US-T273","price":44.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0454\/6838\/5447\/files\/Tezumi-US-T273-5.webp?v=1788468100","url":"https:\/\/www.tezumi.com\/products\/milky-blue-hagi-yaki-yunomi-175ml","provider":"Tezumi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
