The previous and current (third generation) generations have been particular about creating delicate pieces, regardless of whether they are made of earthenware (pottery) or stoneware (porcelain). "It should be handled like a thin glass piece; if you treat it carefully, it won't break easily. Even if it's made of earth, it should be fine to make it as thin as possible," says the teacher. Pieces that pursue thinness have an exceptional mouthfeel.
