INABOSHI 75 ml
Pleasantly chunky and tulip-shaped with a wide mouth, the outside of INABOSHI is a graduation, from the dark bottom swell to gray-green smoke and brighter dun and gold horizons at the lip. The inside has a similar gold and lichen haze to that of KUJUU. Suitable for sencha.
Limited edition: only 50 cups available
Capacity: 75ml / 2.53oz
Home to some of Japan’s most famous mountains and a mix of steaming volcanic peaks and wildflower-studded ridges, the Kujū Renzan’s earthly mountain beauty is captured in six unique cups.
Specially made for IKKYU by Mirakugama, these teacups are a marriage of the ancient sprawl of Kyushus’ famous mountain range and the 16-generations of Takatori potters.
Born at the base of mount Takatori in the early 1600s, Takatori ware uses the unusual soil of Kyushu to produce paper-thin stoneware coveted for tea ceremony. The Kamei family at Mirakugama has used the same clay for generations. They refer to their clay as , mongaifushutsu, a treasured item kept behind closed doors.
The natural variation and ash glaze used by Mirakugama capture a natural essence that is both warm and elegant. We present six small mountain vistas that encompass the mellow-rich layers of earth, billowing clouds of hazy smoke, and raw autumn slopes that make up “the roof of Kyushu.”
