Imperial Beloved Crimson
The extraordinary miracle of cinnabar, akin to ruby-like brilliance, is here for you to behold. Cinnabar is renowned as a time-honored technique cherished by Chinese emperors throughout history. Red is considered a warding-off evil color and has been used in various auspicious items. Among them, cinnabar, with its exceptional coloration, is crowned with the name "Yōhen."

Outstanding Functionality
We use the highest quality natural porcelain stone from Amakusa, Kyushu, as the raw material for these vessels. Arita-yaki porcelain, fired at a temperature exceeding 1300 degrees Celsius, offers a silky touch while being rigid and non-absorbent, making it easy to clean as dirt doesn't easily adhere. There is no earthy smell characteristic of ceramics, allowing you to fully savor the aroma of your beverages. Microwave and dishwasher safe. Excellent heat retention and cold resistance. Suitable for various occasions regardless of age or generation.
