This is an item that shines with craftsmanship, spending more than a year paying close attention to every detail with the pottery in Aichi Prefecture, who works with Marianne's Setoyaki series.\u003cbr\u003eIn her works, Marianne often makes many ancient objects such as hangers, switches, carpet beaters, and other functional objects (tools). The people she is interested in are hardworking people who do various jobs behind the scenes, but their contributions are usually not given much attention, and the main character is Bucket.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*Since it is made using \"sludge casting\", which is one of the ancient molding methods of ceramic manufacturing, there may be irregularities or small pinholes on the surface. In addition, because each piece is painted by hand by a craftsman, there may be individual differences in the shading and bleeding of the glaze.\u003cbr\u003e*What is \"sludge casting molding\"?\u003cbr\u003eA method of pouring slurry into a plaster mold, leaving it for a certain period of time, and then pouring out the excess slurry when the required thickness is reached.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e[About the design]\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHer unique blue color is called Marianne Blue. Even the blue blur and the texture of the pottery are delicately reproduced in Seto ware, making this a finished product that can only be achieved with traditional Japanese techniques.\u003cbr\u003eWe made repeated adjustments to the lines on the sides that were not parallel, the wavering of the lines, and the position of the screws, recreating Marianne's hand-drawn lines not only on the outside but also on the inside, paying close attention to detail.\u003cbr\u003eNote the exquisite thickness, which maintains the thinness characteristic of Marianne's original work, while maintaining the strength of a potted plant.\u003cbr\u003eThe bottom part is engraved with \"Tonkachi \/ Made in Japan\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/9087\/2460\/files\/flowerpot_08_9904622f-844f-4ccd-a8d0-fb09c9f63c3f_600x600.jpg?v=1775803492\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: none;\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/9087\/2460\/files\/flowerpot_012_e0ed3aa5-6314-4e91-a985-478b7ccec4c0_600x600.jpg?v=1775803492\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e[About size and specifications]\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe potted plants are small enough to fit in one hand, making them perfect for planting cacti, succulents, 1-2 plants, and herbs.

At this time of year, reducing the frequency of watering and keeping it dry will help it survive the winter more smoothly.\u003cbr\u003e◯Misting (leaf water): Spraying the leaves during the dry season will help the new buds grow beautifully and will also help prevent pests.\u003cbr\u003e◯Where to grow: They love sunlight, so a sunny and bright window is a special place. Direct sunlight in summer can be a little too strong, so controlling the light through lace curtains will help keep the leaves beautiful.\u003cbr\u003e◯If you want to take it outside: You can take it outside from spring to autumn, but it is a little sensitive to cold, so please bring it inside a warm room before the minimum temperature drops below 10 degrees.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e[Comments from staff]\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlthough the beauty of the design tends to catch your eye, it is actually a full-fledged model that is packed with ingenuity to help grow plants healthily.
