Product Photography |
|
We have made every effort to display accurate
photography on 2000cranes.com. We use diffused lighting in a
darkened studio where no background color or other light elements can be
reflected off the piece. As a result, works may appear lighter in
person if viewed
inside a room directly under incandescent lighting. Additionally, the color capabilities of
your computer monitor can affect
what is seen on screen. |

Product Warnings |
Under certain circumstances, the materials used in
artwork may be harmful to humans or animals if used in ways other than
those intended by the artist. For example, not all decorative
objects (ex. vases, incense burners) can be used for eating and/or
drinking; some are only for display and viewing pleasure.
If the
product is used in a ways other than those intended by the artist, you
assume all responsibility for such use. We at 2000cranes.com make
no warranties whatsoever in regard to the artwork beyond that provided
on this website. |

Raku Glazing Safety |
|
In accordance with guidelines published by
Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor & Welfare regarding tableware safety
(Article #0811001, A:12), 2000 Cranes advises that raku bowls be uses
solely for the purpose of preparing matcha green tea.
Acidic foods or liquids (ex. vinegar-dressed foods, fruit juices, wine) have the potential to release trace amounts of lead in the glaze and,
thus, should not be used with raku ware.
