Know before you buy
A Yunomi is a traditional Japanese teacup designed without a handle. It is intended to be held directly in the hands, allowing you to feel the warmth of the tea and appreciate the texture of the porcelain.
No, this cup is not microwave or dishwasher safe. To preserve the quality and finish of the Arita porcelain, it must be washed by hand.
This Yunomi has a 4 oz capacity, which is the standard size for enjoying concentrated Japanese green teas like sencha or gyokuro.
Arita porcelain comes from Japan's oldest porcelain production region. It is prized for its durability, smooth finish, and historical significance in Japanese tea culture.
The cup is designed to be held comfortably. If you are brewing tea at a very high temperature, we recommend letting the water cool slightly before pouring, or holding the cup near the rim where it stays cooler.
