Handmade by Hiroyuki Tomita in Kanagawa, Japan
 
The mug features a rounded, organic shape with a subtle asymmetry that highlights its handmade nature. The metallic purple glaze shimmers with depth, revealing tones of red, burgundy, and dark violet depending on the light. Its surface texture adds a tactile dimension, while the gracefully curved handle ensures both comfort and elegance.
 
Dimensions: w-13cm x h-7cm
 
Hiroyuki Tomita creates a wide range of work, from everyday functional wares to large sculptural works. He also makes large-scale decorative tiles for walls of hotels and inns. Traditional ceramic art plays an important role in his making but he also values new perspectives and creativity a lot. This can be seen in his tablewares. They are bold in colour and made to not only serve the food but also decorate the dining tables.
