Beer cup (biiruhai) c. early 21th century

"Beer cup (biiruhai)" is a ceramic cup created by contemporary Japanese artist Suzuki Tomio. The cup, crafted in the early 21st century, showcases Tomio's distinctive style, characterized by a textured, almost organic, surface. The white glaze and subtle brown accents create a sense of simplicity and elegance, making the cup an excellent example of Tomio's mastery of functional ceramic art.
