Tokoname Tea Cup Tokuta

Tokoname Tea Cup Tokuta

A tea cup created by Fujita Tokuta. This extraordinary tea cup captivates with its simple elegance. It is made of the same Tokoname clay and and the same glaze like Tokuta’s Kyushu teapot and his Yuzamashi. The cup holds up to 70ml.

Tokoname is one of Japan’s six ancient ceramic centers. High-quality ceramics have been produced here since the 12th century. The clay there, which is particularly rich in iron, can be fired at up to 1200 degrees.
