Description
Bold in color yet subtle in form, the Cloud Whisper Black Teacups bring quiet strength to the tea table. Crafted in Tokoname ware, one of Japan’s most enduring pottery traditions, this set of two highlights the natural depth of black clay in a minimalist finish. Their softly rounded shape rests comfortably in the hands, offering a sense of grounding with each sip.
Slightly porous by nature, Tokoname clay interacts gently with tea, enhancing aroma and flavor over time. The wide, open design allows fragrant teas to expand and breathe, whether you are enjoying a full bodied steep or a smooth bowl of matcha. Simple yet expressive, these teacups reflect the harmony of utility and artistry, echoing centuries of Japanese ceramic heritage.
Pair them with a matching teapot from the same series to complete the set. More than vessels, these teacups invite stillness and connection, turning the everyday act of drinking tea into a moment of reflection.

Tokoname Ware
Tokoname ware is one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns, with a history of over 1,000 years. Made in Tokoname City on the Chita Peninsula in Aichi Prefecture, it uses local clay rich in iron that hardens at low temperatures and becomes naturally water-resistant when fired. This distinctive clay produces the shudei style, unglazed pottery with a warm reddish hue, most famously seen in Tokoname teapots. Known for their smooth pour and ability to bring out the gentle flavor of tea, these teapots embody both practicality and refined simplicity.Teaware
Japanese teaware includes teapots and tea cups, tea sets, tea caddies, scoops, and strainers. Artisan Japanese teaware is handcrafted in small workshops and kilns throughout the country, and are typically made in small batches with care and attention to every step of the process. Their handmade nature exudes a warmth and individual character not possible with mass-produced teaware. Purchase a set or mix-and-match individual pieces to customize your own tea-drinking experience.Shipping & Return
