Crossing two opposing elements — the practical and the artistic, art within everyday use — is what is called yo no bi, the beauty of use.

The Beauty of Use
At Shinemon Kiln, making is carried out in thorough pursuit of this beauty of use, and that intention is handed down in every part of this coffee cup as well.

Easy Form, Refined Colour
A form that is easy to use, refined colour, and a simple, composed beauty of shape are what mark this coffee cup.

An Outline in Pure Gold
The sumptuous, graceful outline finished in pure gold sets the work off vividly and at the same time draws it together — and in it one may glimpse the maker’s strong yearning toward art.
