Sakura and Bird Sake Set

This sake set includes one tokkuri (Japanese sake carafe) and two sake cups, featuring a bird with sakura blossoms on a warm, white foundation, creating a comforting and elegant atmosphere for your dining room or home bar. Kutani ware is painted using a brush with Japanese coloring paint. As you can see, the painted bird and flowers are slightly thickened and stand out.

The smooth texture of stoneware feels relaxing and soft to your mouth, bringing out the rich yet delicate taste of Sake.
