They looks nice.... but I can't imagine drinking from something like that. I bet even in the stone age there were better vessels that could be used for drinking.

The way I look at it is : It is not normal clay from YiXing. Instead all the product are from Japan and I wonder Japan have the zisha clay. One of the photo is obvious it is typical Japan" banko" and not china type of style "chawan".

I have something similar. Perhaps not as "rustic" though!! I use it on occasion for drinking water.
I don't think yours is yi xing (but i guess you know that!) and more likely Japanese or Korean ceramics.

Yes...good for creating that paleolithic esthetic
I got the cup I pictured because it felt like it was almost carved out of stone.
