Celadon is one of the oldest continuous glaze traditions in East Asia — pale blue-green, the color of shallow water over stone, achieved through iron oxide reduction at high temperature. This mizusashi holds that tradition in a lidded form designed for function: to hold fresh water in the tea room, to be lifted and poured with intention.
