New, unused cobalt arabesque free cup from Okinawa's Yachimun pottery. I believe it's a piece from Toubou Koubou Ichi. I found it at an Okinawa Yachimun specialty store and fell in love with its unique, rounded form and the beautiful cobalt arabesque pattern, typical of Yachimun. It's a versatile size, suitable for use as a teacup, coffee cup, or for any beverage, regardless of whether it's Japanese or Western style. I bought it as a set with a plate, but I have many other teacups and cups, so I only rinsed it with water and never used it. The bottom has almost no scratches or stains, and it's in excellent condition. Size: Diameter: Approximately 8cm Height: Approximately 10.5cm The upper half is round and the height is 10.5cm, so I'm happy with the generous capacity. The lower half has a perfect diameter that fits comfortably in one hand, and the design is exquisitely calculated so that the rounded upper part fits perfectly in the palms of both hands when held. When I picked it up in the store, the way it fit my hand was astonishing, and I was moved by the depth of the Mingei (folk craft) pottery that blends into everyday life, which led me to purchase it. The cobalt arabesque pattern is beautiful, and the single point of light blue has a refreshing transparency like the Okinawan sea, which caught my eye among the many cups lined up on the store shelf. I love using practical Okinawa Yachimun, but this form is rare, so how about it for those who love Yachimun? It's a beautiful, unused item that has only been washed with water since I bought it, but please understand that it has been stored at home. Also, please purchase only if you understand the characteristics of Mingei artisan pottery, which has individual differences such as warping, uneven glaze, stone bursts, and pinholes. It's hardly noticeable in the actual item, so it may be difficult to see in the photos, but I've also included an image of a black dot on the inside in the 7th photo.
