This tea cup is refined and elaborate work. Beautiful and lively SAKURA cherry blossoms, which are colored white and pink, and Mt. Fuji are carefully and boldly drawn on the surface of this cup. All SAKURA cherry blossoms are colored in gold, which adds elegance and luxuriousness to this tea cup.
This scene is a traditional symbol of springtime in Japan. Mt. Fuji is covered with snow and we understand that this is a scene of the beginning of spring. The use of golden clouds in the background makes this Matcha bowl bright and luxurious. The rim is painted in sky blue. This blue color tightens the appearance of the design. It is naturally, elegantly and gracefully painted.
Compositions, painted brilliantly and delicately, create a cheerful aura of elegance and vibrant beauty. The noble and gracious painting technique is reserved for high grade tea wares. The pigments used for this cup are bright and elegant, and only used for high grade tea wares. To consider these points, this is set at a very reasonable price.
Would you enjoy high quality Japanese tea and the symbolic spring scenery in Japan with this fine tea cup?
