{"product_id":"ame-glaze-lidded-cups-pair-rim-drip-knob-lid-tiered-foot","title":"Ame-Glaze Lidded Cups, Pair — Rim Drip, Knob-Lid, Tiered Foot","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis pair of lidded cups is thrown in a rounded, tiered silhouette — a bulging mid-body that steps down into a narrower waist before flaring out again to a stable footring. Both piece and lid share the same soft oatmeal-white glaze, with a warm amber-brown \"ame\" (candy-glaze) drip running around the rim and pooling unevenly — a classic two-glaze layering technique where the darker iron glaze is brushed or dipped only at the edge before the lighter base glaze is applied beneath. Each domed lid is finished with a small turned knob in the same rich brown glaze, echoing the rim color and tying the two-tone palette together. The underside of each piece — both cup and lid — shows a neatly trimmed footring left partly glazed with the same amber tone, with visible spiral throwing marks at the center.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Origin: Japanese stoneware, ame-glaze (drip-glaze) tradition (kiln\/potter unconfirmed — let me know if you have provenance)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Form: Tiered lidded cup with footring, domed lid with turned knob\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Glaze: Soft white\/oatmeal ground with amber-brown ame drip at rim, matching knob glaze\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Base: Trimmed footring, partially glazed in matching amber tone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Condition: Good vintage\/secondhand condition — please check photos for chips, lid fit, or glaze wear beyond the characteristic drip finish\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Quantity: Pair (2 lidded cups, sold together)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Dimensions: approx.
