The inside of this katakuchi is finished with a matte black iron glaze, while the surface features a base glaze mixed with coarse sand, layered with an additional glaze made from iron and copper. This combination creates a bronze-like appearance. Although originally designed for Taiwanese tea, it also makes a lovely small flower vase and can even be used to serve dressing or dipping sauces.
