"Since ancient times, many vessels shaped like animals have been crafted. Drawing inspiration from these, we devised a method for attaching the handle using the elastic properties of bamboo, while carefully considering the functionality required for tea utensils. I hope you will not only use it as a tea ware but also as a pouring vessel for sake and soup stock." - Makoto Komatsu
