Bottle cap in nerikomi technique
Ceramic bottle cap from the collection of items in the Japanese technique of nerikomi — a mixture of several types of clay of different colors.
Each device has its own unique pattern, as I mold it by hand. It is a very time-consuming process: I have to prepare clay of several colors, make the pattern, wash the devices to make the pattern clear, etc.
In fact, the value of these caps is much higher than the price at which I sell them. Because of this, I rarely make such devices. But with time I forget about all the difficulties, find inspiration and such a collection appears.
So take time to buy devices in the style of nerikomi. No one knows when such devices will appear again.
Nets are included.

Care recommendations
How to clean. You need a powder for cleaning bongs. If you don’t have one, you can use another cleaning agent, for example, oven cleaner. Dissolve the agent in boiling water. Put the device in the solution. Leave it for a couple of hours. Take it out and rinse very well with water. The device is ready for use.
