Description
Evoking the spirit of tea ceremonies and the unique beauty of raku, this handcrafted Japanese kung fu style tea cup transforms every tasting into a mindful experience. The intentionally rustic ceramic and kiln glaze with a distinctive finish create a piece that is both sensory and decorative. Perfect for tea lovers and professionals alike—hotels, guesthouses, tearooms, and concept stores—this cup brings authentic character to any table without being ostentatious.
An authentic raku ceramic with unique character
Made from stoneware, the cup features a mineral texture and warming feel that fits comfortably in your hand. The kiln glazing technique results in subtle colour variations and textures, making each cup a unique work of everyday art. Its rounded shape offers a natural grip and enhances the flavours during tasting, whether you enjoy oolong, sencha, pu-erh, or more modern infusions.
With a capacity between 101 and 200 ml, it embodies the generous style of tasting cups—perfect for relaxed kung fu tea service or for everyday rituals at home.
From living room to tasting table: a true decorative piece
Much more than just a teacup, it is a decorative accessory in its own right. Placed on a wooden tray, a side table, a kitchen shelf or a coffee table, it brings an artisanal touch that suits both modern and designer interiors as well as Scandinavian, wabi-sabi, industrial or Nordic styles. In an office, it makes a beautiful accent for breaks; in a dining room, it adds interest to minimalist table settings; in a tearoom, it strengthens a genuine, premium identity.
