The Kakurin Blue and White Glaze Mino Teacup is a stunning example of Japanese ceramic artistry. Its design evokes the serene beauty of a misty mountain landscape, with a soft blue glaze flowing over earthy tones. The irregular shape of the cup embodies the wabi-sabi aesthetic, celebrating imperfection and the natural world. This piece seamlessly blends traditional techniques with contemporary artistic expression.

Crafted in the renowned Mino-yaki style of Gifu Prefecture, this teacup carries over 1300 years of ceramic heritage. The evolution of Mino-yaki reflects Japan's cultural journey, from early Korean influences to the refinement of glazing techniques during the Heian period. The cup's design shows the influence of tea ceremony aesthetics developed during the Edo era, while modern production ensures consistent quality.

While designed as an affordable matcha bowl, this versatile piece adapts beautifully to various uses. It's perfect for enjoying any type of tea, serving small dishes, or as a striking decorative accent. Whether used in a casual setting or as part of a more formal tea gathering, this cup brings the essence of Japanese craftsmanship and aesthetic philosophy into any home or occasion.
