Shippo Senchawan - 40ml

This delicate and elegant Kiyomizu-yaki porcelain senchawan (sencha cup) is decorated with shippo (七宝) crests along the rim that are hand-painted in blue, green, and red with gold accents

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)
