Blue Flower Camellia Guinomi Sake Cup

Bring the beauty of camellia to your sake moments with this porcelain guinomi sake cup, adorned in Seto sometsuke—the iconic blue-and-white style. A single camellia wraps gently around the surface, with pale petals unfolding beside touches of gold and deep cobalt, an original design made for MUSUBI KILN. The rounded shape fits naturally in the hand, offering a quiet elegance with every sip.

The floral motif is hand-painted using gosu, a traditional cobalt pigment applied with a thick brush. This technique creates soft gradations that echo the delicate layering of camellia petals. The interior is finished with a smooth, glossy glaze for a pleasant mouthfeel, while the subtly matte exterior enhances its refined, tactile charm.

Beautifully packaged in a matching box featuring the same camellia motif, this guinomi makes a thoughtful gift or a graceful addition to your sake rituals.

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.
