This small cup with its striking deep blue color is especially suited for enjoying warm green tea.
Try pouring freshly brewed Japanese tea from a kyusu teapot into this cup.
Hold the cup firmly with one hand and gently support the bottom with the other—just like the traditional way of drinking hot tea in Japan. It’s a perfect way to recreate an authentic tea-drinking moment.

Please note that the appearance and texture may vary slightly from piece to piece. Thank you for your understanding.

Mino ware originated during the Momoyama period, alongside the rise of the tea ceremony, and is primarily produced in Toki City, Gifu Prefecture. It was particularly loved by tea masters during the birth of Japan’s wabi-sabi culture. Notable types of Mino ware include the refined pale yellow Kizeto, the glossy jet-black Setoguro, the soft milky-white Shino ware, and the uniquely green-patterned Oribe ware. Today, Mino ware accounts for more than half of all porcelain tableware produced in Japan.
