Know before you buy
A Senchawan is specifically designed for drinking Japanese green teas like sencha. Its small 75ml capacity and tapered shape allow the tea to cool to an ideal drinking temperature quickly while concentrating the aroma.
No, these cups are not microwave or dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing them gently to preserve the ceramic material and the artisanal tochiri finish.
These cups do not feature handles or double-wall insulation. The tapered ceramic design is intended to be held directly in the hand, allowing you to gauge the temperature of the tea through the cup.
Tochiri refers to the traditional slashing or decorative patterns carved into the ceramic surface. This technique adds a tactile, artisanal texture to the cups, making each piece feel unique.
These are significantly smaller than a standard coffee mug. With a 75ml capacity, they are intended for small, frequent pours of tea rather than a large serving, which is standard for traditional Japanese tea service.
