This cup is an oddity: a soft, smooth Tenmoku-gata cup with subtle craquelure from Seto.
The shape is really unexpected for a Japanese teacup. It is closer to a Chinese gong fu teacup: utterly open, allowing the scent to flow out. The lip is like velvet, utterly luxuriant.
Seeing Rokube Kato, an Akazu artist, experiment with something so unusual is really exciting. I am happy to see established, traditional artists try unexpected styles!
