Know before you buy
A Yunomi is a traditional Japanese teacup that is handleless. It is designed to be held directly in your hands, allowing you to feel the warmth of the tea.
No, this teacup is not microwave or dishwasher safe. The delicate Arita porcelain requires hand washing to maintain the integrity of the material and the vibrant floral pattern.
The Pink Orchid Teacup has a 4 oz capacity. This size is ideal for traditional tea service or a concentrated pour of your favorite brew.
Because it is made of porcelain and lacks a handle, the cup will transfer heat from the liquid to your hands. We recommend filling it to a comfortable level and holding it by the sides or base once the tea has reached a drinkable temperature.
Arita porcelain is a historic Japanese craft known for its durability, refined white clay, and high-quality finish. It is considered one of the most prestigious types of Japanese ceramics.
