Estimated Shipping Widget will be displayed here!
These mugs, from the popular Sunny Spot series, showcase delightful illustrations of animals snuggled together. Enhanced with seasonal motifs like cherry blossoms, Japanese pampas grass, and snowflakes, each design exudes a sense of Japanese charm.
Exclusive to MUSUBI KILN, this is a collaboration between Kokuzou Kiln, which creates the body of the mug, and Atelier Yu, which paints the design.
Four designs are available: cats, rabbits, Shiba Inu dogs, and shima enaga, a bird also known as the Japanese snow fairy.
The mug’s round shape and generous size make it ideal for tea, coffee, lattes, and soup alike, while the thin lip and wide handle make it easy to hold and sip from. The slightly rough, earthy texture of the stoneware contrasts with the smooth Japanese paints and raised details for a pleasing tactile experience.

Maker / Brand
Nestled at the foot of the sacred Hakusan mountain, Atelier Yu’s workshop is a serene space where inspiration flows from its surrounding natural beauty. Seasonal blooms visible through the windows—cherry blossoms in spring, hydrangeas and sunflowers in summer, and bush clovers in autumn—often find their way into the artisans' designs, reflecting the charm of wildflowers alongside delightful animal motifs.
Skilled female artisans infuse each piece with gentle, soft colors, embracing the five traditional colors of Kutani ware, known as Kutani Gosai. They imbue each creation with warmth, crafting pottery that brings joy to everyday dining and a smile to all who use it.

Crafts
Kutani ware is a pottery produced in the Kaga region of Ishikawa Prefecture, with a history spanning over 350 years. It is characterized by the heavy brilliance of the five colors of navy blue, red, purple, green, and yellow that are applied to the bold and daring lines. Its long history has evolved through the tireless efforts and enthusiasm of people who have sought innovation while maintaining tradition.
