With the Treasure Tea Cups Set, every sip becomes a celebration of life’s most cherished moments. Handcrafted in Japan and designed in 2025, this porcelain duo embodies traditional Japanese symbolism through a design filled with takara-zukushi—a collection of auspicious treasures that represent happiness, prosperity, and protection.
Each cup is coated in a bold, joyful yellow glaze inspired by Kochi ceramics, known for their richness and depth. Embossed with treasures like scrolls (wisdom), drums (festivity), and gourds (longevity), these symbols are subtly raised and delicately hand-painted in a vibrant color palette that radiates positivity. The result is a set that feels both playful and elegant—perfect for marking special occasions or for those who wish to add a sense of luck and tradition to their daily rituals.
The two sizes—a slightly larger cup and its companion—make this set ideal for couples, ceremonial offerings, or for keeping both matcha and sencha on hand. Packaged in a high-quality wooden box, it’s gift-ready and designed to be treasured for generations.
Ideal for Gifting & Cultural Symbolism
Whether for yourself or someone special, the Treasure Tea Cup Set is more than functional—it’s a beautiful gesture of good will and timeless Japanese elegance.

FAQs
All you need to know about Kyoto Ware
What makes Kyoto ware different from other Japanese ceramics?
Kyoto ware, also known as Kyo-yaki or Kiyomizu-yaki, is renowned for its refined elegance, delicate forms, and artistic diversity. Unlike other regional styles that often focus on functionality or rustic textures, Kyoto ware reflects the cultural sophistication of Kyoto—blending tradition with artistic expression in every piece.
Is each Kyoto ware item handmade?
Yes! Every piece of Kyoto ware is individually crafted by skilled artisans, often using techniques passed down through generations. This results in subtle variations in shape, glaze, and texture—making each item one-of-a-kind and rich in character.
Can I use Kyoto ware for everyday meals?
Absolutely. While Kyoto ware is often seen as collectible or ceremonial, many pieces—like plates, bowls, and teacups—are designed for everyday use. They bring a sense of calm beauty and intentionality to even the simplest meals.
Is Kyoto ware dishwasher or microwave safe?
Because Kyoto ware is handmade and often uses traditional glazes, we recommend hand washing only. Most pieces are not suitable for dishwashers, microwaves, or direct heat, as these may damage the glaze or structure over time.
Why is Kyoto ware considered a luxury craft?
Kyoto ware reflects centuries of ceramic mastery, often requiring weeks of detailed shaping, glazing, and firing. Its aesthetic precision, cultural roots, and artisanal quality make it highly valued—not just as tableware, but as functional art steeped in heritage.
