Sogi — facets cut into the wall with a blade rather than left round — worked into a small rice bowl finished in white slip. Shinji Akane works in Gifu; the facets catch light in flat planes rather than the continuous curve of a thrown bowl.
Material: Japanese pottery (ceramic)
Made in Japan
Artisan: Shinji Akane
Size: 11.5 × 5.5 cm (4.5 × 2.2 in)
・Handmade — One by One
Every piece from Japan Classic is formed and fired entirely by hand, in small quantities, one at a time. No two are ever exactly alike.
These handcrafted works carry slight variations in shape, weight, and surface, bearing the subtle marks of true craftsmanship rather than mass production.
・Living Glaze
On glazed pieces, you will find fine crackle patterns—known in Japan as kannyu (貫入)—naturally created as the glaze cools after firing.
This delicate finish evolves with time, reflecting the quiet beauty found in wabi-sabi ceramics.
・Elegance
Inspired by Japan’s timeless aesthetic, every piece by Japan Classic blends tradition with modern versatility.
Whether for rice, soups, or shared plates, these refined tablewares are designed for everyday beauty, maintaining their grace in both Eastern and Western settings.
