From palm-sized Kumidashi to hand-warming Yunomi, our traditional Japanese teacups and sets range from everyday companions to rare collector items.
Kumidashi
Traditionally used to serve guests at Senchado leaf tea ceremonies, the Kumidashi's shallow and open design helps to amplify the aroma, making them the cup of choice for fragrant Japanese green teas such as gyokuro, kabusecha and sencha.
Tall, cylindrical and handle-free, the classic Yunomi teacup is suitable for the everyday enjoyment of all kinds of Japanese tea. Owing to their shape and density, they are particularly well suited for teas served at higher temperatures such as hojicha, genmaicha and bancha – making them excellent hand-warmers during the colder months.
Tea for two or more: from pairs of Meoto "husband and wife" Yunomi to sets of five Kumidashi, share the gift of tea and the art of Japanese hospitality.
