This sake set features elegant golden lines gracefully drawn across a deep black ceramic surface. Including a katakuchi sake carafe and two ochoko cups, it combines simplicity with a quiet yet striking presence.
The gold design spreads in a delicate mesh pattern, adding a refined brilliance to the matte black glaze. The way the gold shimmers softly under the light enhances the serene beauty of the piece.
The katakuchi carafe is characterized by its gentle curves and slightly asymmetrical form.
Perfect for serving chilled sake, it can also be used as a small bowl for sauces or side dishes like aemono, Japanese dressed vegetables.
The ochoko cup features the same intricate gold detailing, with fine lines that glimmer beautifully across both the inside and outside. Each sip reveals subtle changes in reflection, while the rounded form fits comfortably in the hand.
The contrast between black and gold brings an understated elegance to your table. Ideal for evening drinks at home or as a thoughtful gift for someone special.

Black tableware's deep, rich tones and matte or glossy finishes bring a bold and elegant touch to any setting, elevating table design with a modern, sleek allure and fostering an ambiance of depth and a sense of ritual.
