Know before you buy
A yunomi is a traditional Japanese teacup designed without a handle, meant to be held directly in the hands. This piece features a classic cylindrical shape that encourages you to focus on the warmth and texture of the porcelain while you drink.
Firing at cone 8 ensures the porcelain reaches a high level of vitrification, making the cup dense, non-porous, and highly durable. This process creates a sturdy vessel that is well-suited for daily use with hot beverages.
Because each cup is wheel-thrown and fired in an oxidation kiln, there may be slight variations in the depth and tone of the green glaze. These subtle differences are a hallmark of the artist's handmade process and make each cup unique.
While the high-fire porcelain is durable, we recommend hand-washing to preserve the integrity of the glaze over time. If you choose to use a microwave, please do so with caution, as handmade ceramics can sometimes retain heat unevenly.
Measuring 4.25 inches in height, this cup has a substantial presence that fits comfortably in the palm. Its proportions are designed to provide a secure grip, even when filled with hot tea.
