A delicate blend of nostalgia and craftsmanship, this Vintage Checkered Glass Tea Cup brings the romantic charm of the bygone era to your table. Made using a centuries-old Japanese molding technique, the soft milky-white hues emerge through a rapid cooling process, creating an elegant contrast against the iconic ichimatsu (checkered) pattern.

The refined silhouette pairs beautifully with a glass carafe or chiller, making it perfect for iced tea or chilled sake. Its versatile design also makes it ideal for serving small appetizers or delicate desserts. A signature piece that embodies Taisho Romanticism, this cup blends seamlessly with other patterns for a timeless and eclectic collection.

Teacup

Japanese teacups called yunomi jawan (湯呑み茶碗) are designed for enjoying hot green tea like sencha, hojicha, and genmaicha. Selecting a teacup that suits your preferences can enhance your enjoyment of this traditional beverage. How the cup looks, feels, and even sounds are important factors to consider. The cup's shape, height, and width can affect the tea's aroma, too. Consider the material, thickness, texture, glaze, style, and decoration of the cup to best suit the occasion and your mood. Japanese teacups are fun to collect and make a special gift for fans of Japanese green tea.
