Hagi ware is celebrated for its unique Kan-nyu—fine cracks that form naturally during firing due to the different contraction rates of the clay and glaze. These cracks give Hagi ware its permeable nature, allowing tea or sake to seep in over time and gradually change the color of the glaze. Each piece deepens in hue and develops distinctive patterns with use, creating a serene connection to the past. This teacup is a treasure to cherish, growing more beautiful as it matures with time.
