Ondou Kurinuki Cup Nº3 is a cousin of Cup Nº1, featuring more rustic, uneven patches of chocolate brown and black glaze, alongside a showcase of natural anthracite black clay.

Hand-carved using the Japanese kurinuki technique, each cup is slowly shaped from a single block of clay. This intuitive, sculptural process creates a textured surface and organic form, embracing beauty in imperfection.

Each cup is slightly different and individually numbered within its batch of the Nº3 series, highlighting its unique place in the collection.


Note: The clay retains heat well, so the cup may become hot to the touch with very hot liquids. To ensure a comfortable hold, avoid filling it to the top. Take it slow, enjoy the ritual.

Product care

Although Ondou products are intended for everyday use, they are also functional art objects and require handling with care. While the high-fired stoneware ceramic is extremely durable and can resist scratches and common damages, it is still brittle and can break when too much force is applied. Avoid exposing your pottery to sudden temperature changes, such as placing a cold dish in the microwave or a hot dish in cold water, as this can cause thermal shock and damage.

Is it dishwasher safe?

Yes, but like with all hand-made objects, hand-washing is recommended.

Is it microwave safe?

Yes, although we do not recommend using ceramics in the microwave because clay is a highly conductive material and the piece will become very hot to the touch.

Each item is unique

Each item is handmade and will show the marks of this process including intentional “imperfections”. The products pictured reflect the overall image, size, and colour of the piece. However, each piece is unique with differences in applications of glaze and slight variations in size, shape, and capacity. The dimensional error can be ~ 1cm, the capacity ~ 50ml, the weight ~ 50g.
