Shop Owner’s Note

This "Zensho" original features vibrant green maple leaves, known in Japan as "Ao-kaede," accented with subtle gold leaf. The lush green foliage against the calm base color creates a refreshing and cool atmosphere, reminiscent of a breeze in early summer.

While it is a stunning choice for a seasonal tea gathering, its sophisticated elegance also brings a refreshing "splash of green" to your daily routine. It’s a beautiful piece to celebrate the transitions of nature right at your table.
