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

Introducing a small bowl from her life's work, the "Hyakuraku Series." And what a surprise! The title of the piece is "Nekokuraku"! A new series has been born. Each piece is drawn with such vividness, and the playful titles, which give a sense of the background and story behind them, are also noteworthy.

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!
