A Delightful Ceramic Cup for Tea, Sake, or Everyday Use
Bring a Touch of Kyoto to Your Daily Rituals
From the Nagata Studio in Kyoto's scenic Kyotanba region, master potter Takuro Nagata—who has over 50 years of experience—presents this charming handmade ceramic cup.
This exquisite piece embodies the tradition and craftsmanship of Kyo-ware and Kiyomizu-ware, showcasing timeless beauty and functionality.

Each cup is carefully handcrafted using the traditional "press mold" technique, where clay is skillfully shaped by hand. This labor-intensive process results in unique textures and subtle variations, highlighting the artistry behind every piece.
The preserved fingerprints and delicate irregularities add a personal touch, making each cup one of a kind.

The carefully selected porcelain offers a refined translucence and a sophisticated finish. It is fired to achieve exceptional durability, ensuring this cup remains a cherished addition to your home for years.
Its timeless design and robust quality make it perfect for both everyday use and special occasions.

The hand-painted rabbit and moon design is created by Nagata’s wife, a former artisan of Kyoto's renowned Yuzen dyeing tradition. Her delicate brushwork in soft indigo hues exudes harmony and understated elegance.
This cup beautifully combines artistry and practicality, making it a standout piece for pottery enthusiasts and collectors.
