Sale price¥27,700
Elegantly Crafted Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Arita Porcelain Glass
This is the ultimate high-end free cup, meticulously crafted by Aoki Myoko, a renowned artisan from Kosen Kiln, known for its Arita-yaki Somenishiki. Stripping away all unnecessary elements, this piece embodies refined simplicity. Against the milky-white porcelain, the iconic Japanese motif of sakura (cherry blossoms) is delicately depicted. Its dignified presence can be likened to the epitome of glassware perfection.

A High-end Glass with Utility and Beauty
While consciously embracing linear aesthetics, the gently curving sides subtly expand outward. Crafted from high-quality clay and fired at temperatures exceeding 1300 degrees Celsius, this Arita-yaki glass possesses an astonishingly lightweight feel, with ample capacity. It combines the exquisite beauty of Somenishiki patterns with a highly functional design, making it a crystallization of utilitarian beauty.

A Lifetime Companion for Premium Shochu Enjoyment
Utilizing the finest natural clay from Amakusa, Kyushu, as its raw material, this Arita porcelain free cup is fired at extreme temperatures, resulting in a texture reminiscent of silk – smooth, hard, and non-absorbent. It is easy to maintain, devoid of any earthy odors, allowing you to fully savor the aroma of your beverages. It is suitable for use in microwave ovens and dishwashers, excelling in heat retention and cold preservation, making it versatile for various occasions across generations and age groups.

Expressing the Beauty of the Heart through Sakura
Sakura, a symbol of spring's arrival, carries exceptional beauty and has long been cherished as Japan's representative flower. With its floral language translating to "beauty of the heart," it holds a special place in the hearts of the Japanese people. Its full bloom is vividly depicted on the glossy white porcelain.

A One-of-a-Kind Gift
The pattern on each piece varies subtly, rendering each one a unique treasure. While perfect for everyday use, it is also highly recommended as a gift for your cherished ones.

【Abstract】This distinguished kiln upholds the tradition of Arita-yaki (Nabeshima ware) and excels in producing offerings using a complex coloring technique known as "sometsuke." Each color requires a separate firing, and the completion of a single piece can take anywhere from six months to several years. The fusion of this challenging technique and artistic excellence has been passed down to the modern era, resulting in the creation of supreme porcelain pieces.
