萩焼の金子司さんのきのこのマグネットです。わたしはあまりおしゃれにコーディネートできていませんが(笑)、展示会場ではもっといろいろな色やデザインがあり、とても美しかったです。金子さんは、たまたま知り合いのお兄さまで日本橋での個展にお邪魔しました。アパレルブランドとコラボレーションしたり、美術館でインスタレーションをしています。アート性の高くおしゃれな作品です。東京ドームでのテーブルウエア展の萩焼のコーナーでも拝見しました(^^)

Hagi pottery has been popular at Japanese tea ceｒemony since Edo period(Medieval period). Hagi pottery changes over time with use beautifully. The clay of Hagi pottery is rough, so it hold water more than another pottery. The change over time with use beautifully is calld “the seven morpth of Hagi“.
