MASHIKO ware is the pottery of Tochigi Prefecture in Japan. It is pottery of MINGEI.
MINGEI is the general term of the free style that is not kept in the form of the tea ceremony.
This is made well and is good style of work. It's just MINGEI.
This ceramist's name is Shoji Hamada (1894-1978). He is very very famous ceramist in Japan.
He is living national treasure of Japan. This is the original which he made. I guarantee it.
This is just a SHOJI's work. And this is a higher grade than his general work
The box has a judgment by Shinsaku Hamada. He is Shoji's son.
And himself is a famous ceramist. The judgment is real, too. I guarantee it.
This is the highest-class plate seriously made by the specialist.
An edge has lack of the very very small glaze. But it is inherent. It is not a problem at all.
Please purchase great potter's real work at this opportunity.

I have four shipment methods. Please read the following carefully.
And please recognize the characteristic of each method.

1, SAL ( The cheapest method. But it has many faults. )
The maximum weight is 2 kg (included packing material). More than 2 kg is EMS or Fedex.

And the maximum insurance to breakage is USD 50.00.
And SAL has no tracking number. But followup is possible (Very long time is required).
And the following country is not supporting SAL.
South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, Romania, Mongolian, Morocco, etc.
SAL is lower-priced than other methods. But it has many faults.2, EMS ( Fast and safe method. )
EMS is indemnified to breakage or loss. And it has tracking number.
Handling time is one to three weeks.3, Fedex ( Fastest and safe method. But correct cost is uncalculable beforehand. )
I do not use Fedex, unless you wish. If you desire Fedex, please let me know.
The restrictions of Fedex is almost the same as EMS except a handling time.
Handling time is one to two weeks. It is the fastest method.
But Fedex can't calculate a shipping cost in advance.
Because the cost changes in the size of packing.
And, because cost changes finely with a country or areas.

SEA MAIL is also indemnified. And it has tracking number.
But shipment to Germany and Canada, etc does not have compensation.

It is the method of requiring very much days.
