Ginsai Lapis Blue Seigaiha Wave Sake Set

This sake set features a beautiful seigaiha (blue ocean wave) pattern rendered in shimmering silver over a deep lapis-blue glaze. It includes one katakuchi sake carafe and two ochoko cups.

The seigaiha motif, symbolizing peaceful waves that stretch endlessly, has long been cherished in Japan as a symbol of tranquility and lasting happiness.

The ochoko cup has a comfortably rounded shape and just the right thickness. When sake is poured, the rich indigo glaze beautifully enhances the drink’s clarity. These cups can also be used for small appetizers or condiments, adding a refined accent to the table.

This sake set gently shimmers with changing light, bringing an elegant radiance to your dining experience. It is ideal both for everyday enjoyment and as a thoughtful gift.

Four Zoho

Zoho Kiln, located in Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture, is a renowned producer of Mino ware. While their designs are inspired by seasonal flowers and traditional patterns, they also focus on the practical beauty of their pieces, ensuring ease of use and graceful presentation.

Zoho Kiln places particular importance on bengara, the distinctive red pigment used in their akae, or overglaze red enamel, designs. The rich red hue that adorns their pottery deepens in character and becomes even more beautiful with time and use, enhancing the aesthetic experience.
