Enjoy the beauty of the elegant "Hanazume" style with these "Ochoko" sake cups in gentle soft colors. Hanazume is one of the classic painting styles of Kutani ware and is cherished for its decorative floral patterns. 

The detailed flowers and leaves are created using an advanced transfer printing method. An initial draft design is meticulously hand-drawn, capturing the delicate intricacies of each petal and leaf. Following this detailing, genuine gold is used for their outlines, making each sake cup a splendid piece of drinkware. The gold outlines also add a sense of elegance to the gentle colors. A single blue line drawn inside the cup evokes a sense of refinement.

This sake cup set is ideal for celebratory occasions, such as New Year's day, birthdays, and parties. It makes for a wonderful gift for people who enjoy drinking sake with friends and family.

These sake cups will make your home bar a little more special and impress your guests and family. They can also be used to serve small portions of side dishes and be placed in bento boxes.

Available in a set of five, these sake cups are perfect for entertaining guests in a sophisticated atmosphere. They are also available individually.
