Made by Tohan Dobuchi at Tohan Kiln

Mr. Tohan Dobuchi was born in 1980 and is the fourth Tohan. The first Tohan Dobuchi opened Tohan Kiln in 1922. The current Tohan Dobuchi succeeded the fourth in 2011. Tohan Kiln’s unique works, sustained by high level pottery and drawing techniques and various original elegant color glazes in over three hundred colors, are highly appreciated and viewed with awe.

FUYOH is one type of lotus flower, which is painted elegantly, vividly, and intrepidly inside of this teacup. FUYOH lotus flower has been used as a symbol of beauty, often represented as a beautiful woman in Japanese literature and culture since ancient times.

ORIBE means traditional vivid green color. The outside is ORIBE vivid green, the color of lotus leaves in sunlight. Outside green color and inside white color is finished with brush lines, which create atmosphere. A little rough clay modestly adds accent.

We don't usually offer pillbox-style Yunomi like those used at SUSHI restaurants, but this Yunomi are painted quite exquisitely and elegantly, so we can’t help but add them to our line. Because the capacity is rather large (225ml / 7.19fl oz), it is suitable not only to enjoy subtle flavor of high quality Japanese tea, but also to enjoy various drinks, for example, Japanese iced tea, fruit smoothie, wine or sake, or another. It depends upon your vision and preference.

This Yunomi has a unique special graceful aura, so that we are certain this should change even your daily tea time to an extraordinary experience.
