About JIKON

JIKON - Black Glazed SHOW-GO - Komyoin, a subtemple of Tofukuji Temple

"Ikon" means "living in the present."
Live this moment to the fullest without being tied down to the past or the future.

Easier said than done.
Today's society is full of noise, but why not take a moment to forget the hustle and bustle of the world while drinking tea?

The taste of tea, its infinite resolution, is a realm that cannot be reached no matter how much technology advances.
The deliciousness is not felt in the past or the future, but in the present moment.

The concept of "JIKON" is "a teacup to hold with both hands"
———Just a puff to keep you in the present.⁡


About Black Glaze Ichiyo

Ichinyo means that everything comes from one source, there is no discrimination or duality, there is no distinction between front and back.

Both the front and back are glazed with a matte black glaze, aiming for a texture that evokes the feeling of wabi-sabi. ⁡
