Special Red Clay

Reiko’s red Clay is very fine. You may able to tell from the photos. 

He mixed clay taken UNDRER THE POND of Tokoname 20 YEARS AGO and one from 40 YEARS AGO. 

After purification, the clay became smooth and fine– and then clay has natural shine(glow) and become more tasteful.  As you use it will have more shine(glow).
