Sinkougama Kiln Pastel Donburi Bowl Blue x Pink 16.5cm

Kazuaki and his wife Kumiko, the fourth-generation owners of the Sinkougama Kiln, created the Pastel Jelly collection in 2015. By mixing three different colour glazes together, Kazuaki created an attractive blend of Jelly-like gloss with vivid and calm colours, which magnificently melt into one warm finishing. The pastel-colour glaze is reminiscent of the sweet jelly dripping sweets. The beautiful colours make your dishes even more mouth-watering.

About Skinkougama

At Shinkougama, predecessors derived a schedule based on the Shinoyaki, which consists of 22 hours of baking the pots and then slowly bringing down the temperature for 24 hours so the colours become more vivid. This is 3 times the usual baking time. Yellow glaze usually comes out with a bright orange like the colour, but if properly cooled, it becomes a softer colour like a lemon. This original baking method allowed to create Jelly gloss and vivid, calm colouring.
