HANDMADE JAPANESE TEACUP | GION SAKURA | TOUSEN KILN 陶泉窯

Celebrate the timeless beauty of Kyoto with this Handmade Japanese Gion Sakura Gozan Yunomi Tea Cup, expertly crafted by Tousen Kiln in Kyoto, Japan. Inspired by the graceful weeping cherry blossoms of Kyoto's historic Gion district, this handcrafted yunomi features cascading sakura motifs that evoke the tranquil beauty of spring. The soft ivory glaze and elegant hand-painted decoration reflect the refined artistry of authentic Kiyomizu Ware (Kyo-yaki).

Founded in the early Meiji era, Tousen Kiln began as a Kiyomizu ware wholesaler before establishing its own kiln to create handcrafted ceramics. Using the traditional clay and glazes of Kyoto's Kiyomizu ware, each piece carries forward generations of Japanese ceramic craftsmanship while embracing timeless elegance and everyday practicality.

Designed for enjoying green tea, sencha, hojicha, genmaicha or your favourite loose-leaf tea, the gently contoured yunomi fits comfortably in the hand, offering a warm and relaxing tea-drinking experience. Each cup is individually handcrafted, resulting in subtle variations in glaze and hand-painted decoration that make every piece uniquely beautiful.

Whether used for your daily tea ritual or displayed alongside your Japanese tableware collection, this elegant yunomi brings the charm of Kyoto's sakura season into your home.
