Capacity: 50 ml

This tea cup is defined by a raised, chalice-like form that emphasizes clarity, balance, and intention in drinking. The bowl is compact and gently rounded, concentrating aroma within a small volume, while the elevated foot lifts the cup away from the table surface. This separation creates a feeling of lightness and control, encouraging slower movement and focused attention with each sip.

The glaze presents layered blue tones that flow vertically along the surface, shaped by firing rather than surface decoration. Subtle variation in color and depth gives the cup a sense of movement and material richness. Light interacts differently across the bowl and stem, revealing changes in tone that add visual depth without distracting from the form itself.

The ceramic body beneath the glaze provides steady insulation, allowing the tea to remain warm while keeping the stem comfortable to hold. The rounded interior supports smooth movement of the liquor, while the gently opened rim directs the tea cleanly to the palate. Each proportion is calibrated to enhance tasting rather than volume, reinforcing the cup’s role as a focused drinking vessel.

With continued use, the cup becomes increasingly familiar in the hand. Its surface softens subtly, and its presence becomes more personal through repetition. Rather than functioning as an ornamental object, it serves as a precise tasting tool shaped by daily practice, valued for balance, material integrity, and its ability to heighten awareness during tea drinking.
