Hakuji Mentori Sen-bori Guinomi Tate (白磁面取線彫ぐい呑縦)
This is the Arita ware crafted by NAKAO, Jun (中尾純).
Jun made the cup on a potter’s wheel.
Shaving the surface had the sides faceted after dry.
And he added the engraved thin lines design.
The cup is transparent to light because he engraved to the limit.
That's something you can enjoy looking at it.
