Hand-painted Kiyomizu-yaki Lidded Yunomi - 120ml

This elegant Kiyomizu-yaki porcelain lidded yunomi (teacup) is decorated with shippo (七宝) crests and pine trees along the rim and lid that are delicately hand-painted in blue. Under this painted rim, the cup is further decorated with a vertical fluting pattern called sogi (そぎ) also called sogime or sogimon.

Lidded cups are useful for keeping dust out of your tea while also trapping aromas and heat.
