Handmade Kyoto pottery sake cup

Endless Exploration of Glazes

Subtle changes in firing temperature or glaze composition bring forth endless variations—no two handmade pieces are ever alike. Each sake cup reflects his lifelong pursuit of beauty, mastery, and the traditional artistry of Japanese pottery.

Each Tenmoku sake cup reveals a completely unique glaze pattern, allowing you to enjoy the artistry of handmade Japanese ceramics in daily life.

Because the glaze is preserved in its natural form, its vivid colors will not fade or deteriorate over time.
