Brown glazed ceramic sake carafe

Key measurements for finding the right location:

• Diameter: 5.4 cm
• Height: 12.8 cm
• Weight: 0.21 kg

All you need to know about the material:

• Material: Reactive glaze ceramic
• Tokkuri shape, straight body, short neck and flared rim
• Charcoal matte body, glossy brown shoulder, amber rim with drips
• Pattern stamped underglaze, almost lost in the dark color
• Diameter 5.4 cm, height 12.8 cm, 0.21 kg
• Sold without stopper, hand wash

The flared body is what gives the object its character: it gives the carafe a small, very vertical chimney-like silhouette that draws the eye on a coffee table or an aperitif tray. It takes up barely 5 cm of floor space for 13 cm in height, a ratio few containers maintain.

What you need to know for installation and maintenance:

• Rinse then shake upside down
• Let it dry upside down overnight; the narrow neck traps moisture
• Hand wash only; dishwasher use is not documented
• Do not pour boiling liquid into a cold carafe
