Clay Mat Shinogi Cut-Rimmed Cup
This straight-sided cup features a beautiful "shinogi" pattern, carefully carved line by line into the soft texture of the clay.
The interplay of glaze variations and the surface of the clay evoke a sense of quiet, profound character, reminiscent of antique pottery.
Its clean, straight-sided shape fits comfortably in the hand, making it ideal for daily use, whether for tea, coffee, or as a traditional Japanese teacup (yunomi).
The subtle unevenness of the shinogi pattern creates delicate shadows, allowing you to enjoy the changing expressions of the cup with each use, which is another one of its charms.
With its understated simplicity and dignified beauty, this cup will gently color your everyday moments.
