This easy-to-use Yunomi Japanese teacup features a cat playing with red yarn on a smooth porcelain which is typical of Hasami Ware.
The 160ml (5.4oz) is a little small, but it is the perfect size for drinking up a cup of green tea before it gets cold. It is light and easy to hold, so it is also recommended for use by children.
There is also a Japanese rice bowl in the same series. How about matching them as a gift for friends and family members who love cats?

Hasami ware is a traditional Japanese ceramic produced in Hasami Town, often called the "Town of Pottery," located in Nagasaki Prefecture, Kyushu. For over 400 years, it has been cherished as durable and practical tableware for everyday use.
It is known for its vibrant hand-painted designs on a pure white porcelain base—an iconic feature of Japanese porcelain.

Yunomi Japanese Teacups
Yunomi are a kind of vertical, cylindrical teacup. They are typically used for casual tea times. Because of the large capacity of a yunomi, the area where the tea touches the air is small, so the tea does not get cold easily. They are also suitable for when you want to drink a lot of bancha or hojicha. In sushi restaurants, tea is traditionally served in a yunomi.
