細 HOSOI Tea Cup

In Japanese culture, there is a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship and artistry of ceramics, often instilled with a sense of spirituality and respect. This profound appreciation extends to both the objects themselves and the processes behind their creation, rooted in the philosophy of wabi-sabi, which values the beauty in imperfection and the transient nature of all things.

Artisans pour their heart and spirit into their work, and this dedication is believed to be reflected in the final product. The ceramic pieces have a sense of life and presence, transforming them into more than just functional items—they become objects with a story and a connection to the artisan who created them. This reverence for the soul of ceramics aligns with the Japanese emphasis on mindfulness and the appreciation of everyday objects, elevating the experience of using them in daily life.

Our Hosoi tea cups encapsulate this ethos and the art of tea drinking. Crafted in the southeastern Tōno region of Gifu Prefecture, they are made from only local clay. Its gentle contours and balanced proportions are ideal for green teas, focusing the senses on the aroma, flavour and warmth of your drink. They blend elegance and functionality, enhancing the ritual of tea drinking and celebrating the beauty of Japanese ceramic artistry.

Our white Hosoi tea cups feature a beautiful matte glaze, reminiscing of earth and fired clay.
Each has slight variations in shape, colour and texture, emphasising the unique beauty of a handmade product.
