Blue Flower Camellia Beer Cup

Bring the charm of camellia to your table with this porcelain beer cup, adorned in Seto sometsuke—the iconic blue-and-white style. A single branch curves gently along the form, crowned with a blooming camellia and broad, cobalt-colored leaves, an original design made for MUSUBI KILN. A soft glint of gold at the flower’s center adds a delicate contrast to the otherwise restrained palette.

The rim is slightly irregular, with a gentle waviness that reflects the warmth and character of a handcrafted piece. While perfect for beer, this versatile cup also suits a variety of drinks, from sparkling water to iced tea.

The floral design is hand-painted using gosu, a traditional cobalt pigment applied with a thick brush. This technique creates gentle shifts in tone—from deep indigo to pale blue—capturing the softness and depth of each petal and leaf. Delicate details extend gracefully across the surface, revealing the refined touch of an experienced artisan.

Beautifully packaged in a matching box featuring the same camellia motif, this cup makes a thoughtful gift or a timeless addition to everyday moments.

SINGAMA

Founded in 1919, SINGAMA is a family-run pottery studio in Shinano, a small town nestled in the northeastern hills of Seto City, Aichi Prefecture. Using high-quality local clay, the studio specializes in Seto sometsuke—white porcelain adorned with soft, indigo blue designs. Each piece is hand-painted and crafted to express comfort, with gentle forms and warmth that feel at home on the everyday table.

Made in and around Seto City in Aichi Prefecture, Seto ware encompasses a wide range of ceramics that reflect centuries of craftsmanship and innovation. As one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns (Rokkoyo), the Seto region holds a distinguished place in the country’s ceramic heritage. It was also a pioneer in porcelain mass-production, and its widespread use gave rise to the word setomono—a term still used today to refer to ceramics in general.

Remarkable for its stylistic breadth, Seto is one of the few regions in Japan where both stoneware and porcelain are made. From simple everyday tableware to more refined pieces, Seto ware continues to shape the rhythm of daily life with creations that balance tradition and creativity.
