Product Description
This Hasami Porcelain cup brings a calm, everyday feel to the table with its traditional dyed design and compact form. The porcelain body is smooth and practical in hand, made for regular use rather than display only.
It measures 3.3" in diameter x 2.8" in height (8.4 cm x 7 cm) and holds 9.5 oz (280 cc) at full capacity. The shape is easy to pour from and easy to hold, with a size that works well for tea, water, or small servings.
Made in Hasami Town, Nagasaki Prefecture, this piece comes from a Japanese ceramic tradition with more than 400 years of history. Hasami ware is known for porcelain that is durable, easy to handle, and stable, and this cup follows that approach in a simple, usable form.
The design is described as Tochiri carving / flying plane, with dyed colorwork that gives the cup its character. Because of the nature of pottery, the color tone and the way the glaze appears may differ from the image, and each piece may vary slightly in size.
Made in Japan from porcelain, this cup has passed inspection for lead and cadmium. It is a straightforward choice for someone looking for a cup with a clear visual identity, solid daily function, and the quiet appeal of Japanese tableware.

Nestled in the hills of Nagasaki Prefecture, the town of Hasami has been a center of Japanese ceramics for over 400 years.

Hasami Ware: Craft for Everyday Life
Hasami ware is defined by its quiet balance between function, beauty, and restraint.
Originating in Hasami, Nagasaki Prefecture, its history dates back to the early 17th century, when the region became a major center for porcelain production under the patronage of local feudal lords.
Unlike more ornamental styles created for the elite, Hasami ware was developed primarily for everyday use, emphasizing durability, stackability, and efficiency without sacrificing elegance. Over centuries, artisans refined standardized forms while allowing subtle variation through glaze, firing, and hand finishing.
Traditionally influenced by Chinese techniques, Hasami gradually formed its own identity—clean silhouettes, practical proportions, and understated decoration. In modern times, Hasami ware has evolved seamlessly, embracing contemporary design while preserving its utilitarian roots.
This enduring adaptability reflects a philosophy in which craftsmanship serves daily life, creating objects meant not only to be admired but also truly used and lived with.
