assa.
Based in Kasama, Ibaraki Prefecture, assa. creates ceramics with a playful, free-spirited approach. Animals and imaginative characters appear across her cups and vases, bringing everyday objects to life.
From pandas and mermaids to girl-shaped flower vessels, her pieces offer small, unexpected encounters at the table. Their charm invites us to pause, smile, and find a little pleasure in familiar routines— a cup of tea, a freshly picked flower, a quiet moment at home.
