Kisengame Souzumi Arita: This elegant set features cups on tall pedestals, adorned with a delicate and colorful floral pattern.

Both the upper rim and the base are accented with a gold trim. The interior of each cup is beautifully decorated with a deep blue hand-painted stylized floral motif.

The cups also showcase the Sukashibori technique, a traditional Japanese method for creating translucent patterns in porcelain. When held up to the light, these intricate designs become visible through the thin, semi-transparent material (see photos).

This set exemplifies the harmonious blend of natural elements, traditional Japanese aesthetics, and exceptional craftsmanship.

Beautiful as a decorative accent in your interior and perfect for enjoying your tea, sake, or coffee with even more style.
