Know before you buy
No, these stoneware yunomi are not dishwasher or microwave safe. We recommend hand washing them gently to preserve the natural texture of the exterior.
The exterior features a natural, tactile stoneware finish that provides a secure grip. It offers a rustic, earthy feel that contrasts nicely with the smooth, glazed interior.
Yes, 140ml is a traditional size for Japanese tea service, perfect for enjoying multiple small infusions of loose-leaf green tea like sencha or gyokuro.
Because they are made of stoneware, they will retain heat. We suggest holding the cup near the top rim or allowing the tea to cool slightly to a comfortable drinking temperature before handling.
The smooth white glaze serves a functional purpose: it allows you to clearly see the color and clarity of your tea liquor, which is an essential part of the Japanese tea ritual.
