DESCRIPTION

The case that holds this vessel — made for drinking ceremonial espresso or other special liquids — uses an extra-thick 6mm vegetable-tanned cowhide, its remodeling handled by Donald (R.I.P. Charm), themed on memento mori and nodate (outdoor tea ceremony).
The skull used was hand-carved from deer antler using the "rokumei dokuro" technique — truly a one-of-a-kind collaborative work.

Not microwave-safe.

Metallic glazes may change color somewhat over time due to oxidation. Please be careful with acids and bleach.
For pieces with fired-on gold or platinum, please use a soft sponge when cleaning.
