Oil Drop Tenmoku, Loved by Hideyoshi and Nobunaga
It is said that Sengoku-era generals and tea enthusiasts like Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Oda Nobunaga had a deep affection for Oil Drop Tenmoku. Oil Drop Tenmoku refers to tea bowls with a black glaze containing golden and silver crystals, giving the appearance of oil droplets floating on the surface. Throughout history, Tenmoku tea bowls have been treasured as masterpieces among tea connoisseurs. When held to the light, you can further enjoy the brilliant expressions that resemble dragon scales.

Real Gold Shine
This coffee cup features a ceramic technique called “Kin Fukuwa” (genuine gold edge decoration), adding a dazzling impression with an elegant outline of the Oil Drop Tenmoku, reminiscent of a deep abyss transforming into shining oil droplets.

A Coffee Cup That Pursues Aesthetics and Functionality
The concept of balancing functionality and beauty, known as “Yo no Bi” in Japanese, considering the user’s perspective, is faithfully embodied in this Arita ceramic coffee cup. The slight curvature of the rim and the exquisite feel that fits comfortably in your hand can be perceptibly experienced through the senses.
