SOMETSUKE refers to traditional Japanese ceramics that have been painted on white ground with a pattern mainly made of cobalt oxide and then baked at high temperature with transparent glaze. It's simple yet very sophisticated and very easy to use all year round.
SOHKA of this name means flowers in Japanese. As its name suggests, famous Japanese flowers are boldly drawn on the surface.
(TSUBAKI)
TSUBAKI means camellia flowers. Camellia flowers are one of the most traditional, cherished flowers of Japan, especially prized in tea ceremony. The flowers are painted elegantly, vividly, and intrepidly. Camellia is an evergreen and blooms even in a shady area or in the winter season, and the flower is so beautiful. It is the reason why the camellia has been well-loved in Japan for so many years. The flowers and plants are vividly painted by zaffer glaze in Tohan's specific painting style, which always fascinates viewers.
(TESSEN)
TESSEN means clematis in Japanese, which is one of the seasonal flowers arranged for the tea ceremony. The purple color of TESSEN clematis is beautifully reflected on the white color teacup elegantly and calmly. The flowers and plants are vividly painted by zaffer glaze in Tohan's specific painting style, which always fascinates viewers.
The pottery wheel marks on the outside not only create a sense of rhythm but also make the teacup convenient to hold in your hands without slipping.
This Yunomi has a graceful aura, that will change even your daily tea time to an extraordinary experience.
