This is a set of six Kiyomizu-yaki teacups, a traditional craft of Kyoto. The teacups feature a simple yet elegant design with the Tokusa (horsetail) pattern carefully hand-painted on them. The vertical stripes in a subdued color palette add a touch of sophistication to your dining table. The inside of the teacups has a crackle glaze (kannyu), a fine crack pattern on the surface of the pottery, allowing you to enjoy a deep, textured feel. With their clean design, these teacups go well with not only Japanese sweets but also Western-style confectionery. They are teacups that will enrich your daily tea time. They can also be used as small bowls, not just for drinking tea. *Due to being handmade, each piece has a different texture. Please check the photos before considering a purchase.
