Description

This premium handmade guinomi sake cup features a traditional clematis pattern. Each piece is decorated with aochibu / shirochibu, one of the remarkable painting techniques of Kutani ware began in the Taisho era.

It is created by a Kutani ware artist, Ms. Manami Ueno, who works under Masahiro Uchida, a master craftsman of the Aochibu / Shirochibu style.

The round shape of the cup is easy to hold and has a soft and graceful atmosphere, and the dots and gold color painted in Chibu style are thick and have a different texture from porcelain when touched, conveying the quality of hand-painting.

The smooth texture of porcelain feels relaxing and soft to your mouth, bringing out the rich yet delicate taste of Sake. This sake cup gives a comforting, elegant atmosphere to your dining room or home bar. Perfect for a special occasion when enjoying with family and guests, and also an amazing gift for your loved one.

Guinomi

Guinomi are a type of sake cup. They are typically smaller than a Japanese teacup, and on the somewhat larger size for a sake cup. They are often used without a sake carafe, with sake poured directly from the bottle.

Originally guinomi were used to hold delicacies during Japanese tea ceremonies. At some point, people started to use them to pour and drink sake after enjoying the delicacies. This is believed to be the origin of guinomi. They therefore evolved over time alongside Japan’s tea culture.
