Kutani Ware – Japanese Teacup Set (2 Cups) – Blue, Black & Gold with Blue Grain Tessin Design

This elegant Kutani Ware teacup set showcases the refined beauty and artistic heritage of Ishikawa Prefecture. Each cup is adorned with the traditional Tessin motif – flowing, gold-accented patterns inspired by textile designs – set against a deep black background. Bright blue grain-like dots scatter across the surface, creating a dynamic contrast that highlights the intricate gold detailing and brings a sense of movement and life to the design.

Hand-painted using Kutani’s signature overglaze enamelling techniques, these teacups embody the rich history of Kutani art, known for its bold colours, detailed brushwork, and decorative brilliance. The smooth light-grey interior provides a calm balance to the ornate exterior, making the cups both functional and visually striking.

Perfect for enjoying Japanese tea, herbal blends, or everyday beverages, this set also makes a thoughtful gift or a beautiful addition to any collection of fine Japanese ceramics.
