Cup Feature 1
A brand that brings out the new appeal of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki
This is a ceramic cup set of Kyoto's pottery, Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki. All processes of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki pottery are done by hand. For this reason, they are highly rare and valuable ceramics whose techniques have been carefully passed down from the Azuchi-Momoyama period to the present day.
Tohken-gama, which manufactures these plates, is a relatively new brand established in 2002. While skilled craftsmen continue the tradition of Kiyomizu-yaki, young artisans are taking on the challenge of creating new products.
The kiln's unique pieces, which combine high design and functionality, bring out the new appeal of Kyo-yaki and Kiyomizu-yaki pottery.
Cup Feature 2
Each of the four colors is attractive.
Set of 4 cups in different colors. Matte blue, white, gray, and black. Each color gives a calm impression. All are handmade, so the unevenness of the glaze and subtle differences in expression shine through as individuality.
The color can be changed depending on the tableware to be matched, or each family member can use his or her own cup. The modern cups are easy to match with any table setting, whether Japanese or Western.
Cup Feature 3
Fits comfortably in the hand! Playful design
The ingenious design has a bottom that is much narrower than the width of the drinking spout. It is easy to hold even for women and children with small hands, and can withstand the weight of the ceramic. At a height of 3.54 in. (9cm), it is not too large, making it an ideal cup for daily use.
Lines on the sides near the bottom highlight the monochromatic cups. The loosely bulging upper part is also smooth. The warmth of the potter's wheel can be fully appreciated.
