Description

Crafted individually on the pottery wheel, this cup is known as ‘yunomi’, a ceramic teacup which is taller than it is wide. It is handcrafted in Arita, in the Saga Prefecture, a town renowned for being one of the first sites in Japan to produce porcelain.

Each cup is a handmade piece with slight differences in colour, pattern, shape and size as a result of the process.

This cup is unglazed and fired at extremely high temperatures, in the traditional Japanese ‘yakishime’ ceramic technique.

Porcelain

Before first use, immerse the teacup in water and boil it for 30 minutes. Taking care of your teacup includes avoiding stacking it with other objects to prevent scratches or cracks. Use spoons and other hard utensils with extra care to avoid striking or scraping.

After use, hand wash it carefully with a soft sponge and dry thoroughly. Do not wash it with any cleansing agents and avoid using abrasive sponges, dishwashers or drying machines.

It must not be directly exposed to temperature shocks – whether from a flame, conventional oven, microwave, induction cooktop, freezer, refrigerator or other source of heat or cold. Avoid any shocks or friction.

If you notice any cracks, chips or deep scrapes, please stop using it, as these can cause the item to break at any time.

As our objects are crafted in small batches and often made-to-order by our artisans, we regretfully do not accept any returns.
