Sai-akaaoe Senchawan - 40ml

This delicate and elegant Kiyomizu-yaki porcelain sencha wan (sencha cup) is hand-painted in a style called sai-akaaoe (彩赤青絵), a combination of red and green overglaze painting. This cup features designs of bamboo, flowers, and birds.

With a classic tulip shape and a modest 40ml capacity, this cup is ideal for savouring high-grade sencha, though can be used for any purpose. The pure white of porcelain also allows you to appreciate the colour and clarity of the tea.

This cup was made by Kuramoto Masao (倉元 真佐夫) of Kōhō Kiln (光抱窯)
