Kyo | Touan Matcha Whisk Stand Holder : Star Crystal Glaze

Color: 8 Wine Red

Crafted by Touan, a Kyoto-based kiln founded in 1922, this piece features their original glaze technique known as Hoshi-kesshō (Star Crystal).

The delicate star-like crystalline patterns that appear on the surface are naturally formed during firing, as the glaze components crystallize under specific conditions. The result is a shimmering, sharp brilliance that shifts with the angle of light, offering a sense of depth and mystery. Compared to Hana-kesshō ("Flower Crystal"), which is also a type of crystal glaze, Star Crystal is characterized by a more angular, radiant appearance.

Kindly note that each piece is individually handmade, so the color and crystal pattern may differ slightly from the photo. We appreciate your understanding.
