Using traditional Kutani ware techniques as a base, ceramic artist Yamazaki Yuri creates playful pieces that combine vibrant colors with original, free-flowing compositions.

Her life's work, the "Hyakuraku Series," is as lively as a jack-in-the-box, and each piece has incredible power!
It's amazing that there are over 100 different types of bean bowls and chopstick rests combined.

Although it's called a bean bowl, its uses seem to be quite diverse depending on your imagination. You can display it as an interior decoration, and a nocoto-style use would be as a treat plate for your beloved cat, which sounds cute and fun!
