Enjoy Everyday Moments with Your Favorite Cup
Treasure the Simple Joys of Daily Life.
These cups are handcrafted by Miyuki Matoba of nagusa, a pottery studio in Yamashina, Kyoto. She named her studio “nagusa,” meaning “nameless grass,” to express her wish to create pottery that blends naturally into daily life.
The result is a pair of cups full of warmth and charm, perfect for enjoying drinks in a relaxed atmosphere.

The Annan style, originating from Vietnam, is known for its soft, expressive finishes. Each piece shows unique blurring and subtle changes in color, highlighting the beauty of handmade Japanese ceramics. After carving fine lines, gosu (blue pigment) is applied, giving the design a gentle and inviting character.

Matoba studied fine arts at university and later trained in ceramics in Kyoto. Her simple bird motifs, drawn with delicate lines, bring a sense of peace to teatime and mealtime alike.
