Elevate your daily tea ritual with this uniquely designed Japanese small tea cup, crafted for intentional slow sipping and thoughtful tea appreciation. Blending modern geometric art with traditional Japanese ceramic craft, this cup stands out as both a functional serving piece and a subtle decorative accent for any tea space.

Unique Modern Geometric Design

Breaking away from traditional round cup shapes, this cup features a hand-crafted faceted multi-sided geometry: choose between 4-sided (Style A) or 5-sided (Style B) faceted造型 (zōkei,造型) to match your personal aesthetic. The sharp, clean lines create eye-catching light play across the textured bronze glaze, adding a contemporary artistic touch to any traditional or modern tea setup.

Premium Materials & Finishing

This cup is crafted from high-fired durable ceramic, finished with a special bronze reactive glaze that gives it a warm, aged metallic sheen ranging from deep charcoal to soft bronze tones. Each cup features a contrasting light unglazed ceramic base for a balanced, comfortable grip and natural texture contrast. The glaze is non-porous, food-safe, easy to clean, and retains heat perfectly for slow sipping.

Ideal Size for Japanese Tea Rituals

With a 1.7oz (50ml) capacity, this small cup is perfectly sized for the traditional Japanese approach to slow tea sipping, letting you fully appreciate the aroma and flavor of sencha, matcha, hojicha, or any whole-leaf tea. It fits comfortably in the hand, making it ideal for casual everyday use or formal tea gatherings:

Style A: 2″ diameter x 1.6″ height (5cm x 4cm), 1.7oz capacity
Style B: 2.05″ diameter x 1.65″ height (5.2cm x 4.2cm), 1.7oz capacity
