The polka dot design of OMOIDE Yunomi may look contemporary to you. However, it is, in fact, a traditional technique called MIZUTAMA BORI. Artisans carve each dot by hand. Each dot is a slight indentation that enables you to hold the cup securely, making it universally accessible. The way this Yunomi fits in your hands feels pleasant, and you can feel the gentle warmth of your tea all over your palms. The navy polka dot pattern is a classic design, and one of the most popular styles of Yunomi.
OMOIDE is the Japanese word for memories from long ago. What makes us feel nostalgic about this Yunomi is its design and shape, which are so familiar to Japanese people. We often encounter this design when we visit traditional-style hotels or even our grandparents' house. This Yunomi is part of every Japanese person’s memories of the past.
The pure white interior allows the true color of any tea to be seen, and it is enjoyable for us to be able to easily differentiate the colors and features of each tea. If you are looking for your first Yunomi, we highly recommend starting your collection with a classic and affordable piece like this OMOIDE Yunomi.
