Handcrafted Yunomi: 190ml (6.42fl oz), diameter: 2.95inches (7.50cm) height: 3.35inches (8.50cm)
Sophisticated Kyo Yaki (Kyoto Style)
Made by Shunzan Mori at Shunzan Kiln
This Yunomi teacup is graceful and dignified. The combination of the elegant gold painting and the quaint and charming clay is unique. SAKURA cherry blossoms, which are not only a well-loved symbol of spring, but are also the national flower of Japan, are painted elegantly on the surface. SAKURA along with Mt. Fuji are the two best loved symbols of Japan. Flowers and plants painted by the artisan Shunzan Mori are modestly elegant and create a unique atmosphere.
This Yunomi teacup is the traditional standard Kyo Yaki shape. However, the artisan Shunzan Mori has added a few special touches, such as linear patterns carved on the side and a spiral on the lowest point of the inside. The base is carefully carved to a unique shape. He also applies iron glaze at the rim to tighten the design. It is called KUCHIBENI (lipstick) or KUCHISABI. These special techniques bring a gentle accent to the atmosphere.
Colorful patches and ring of orange are called GOHONDE, a traditional technique that adds warmth to the atmosphere of the work. It is impossible to fully control the contrasting density of GOHONDE, so that GOHONDE is a little different in each work.
This Yunomi teacup brings the cheerful feeling of walking through autumn leaves. The elegant colored SAKURA and GOHONDE techniques create a warm atmosphere yet also evoke the brisk autumn air in Japan. It will certainly add joy to your green moment.
