Know before you buy
No, this piece is not microwave or dishwasher safe. We recommend hand washing it gently to preserve the ceramic glaze and the painted leaf detail.
Because this cup is not insulated and lacks a handle, it will become warm to the touch when filled with hot tea. We suggest holding it near the rim or allowing the tea to cool slightly before handling.
The leaf detail is a decorative, traditional element common in Japanese Yunomi. It adds a subtle, artistic touch that is revealed as you drink your tea.
While it is a vintage item in very good condition, it is fully functional and designed for daily tea rituals. Its durable ceramic construction makes it well-suited for regular use if handled with care.
The 150ml capacity is ideal for traditional Japanese green teas like Sencha or Gyokuro, which are typically served in smaller, concentrated portions to highlight their nuanced flavors.
