Small Cup -Shippou"七宝"pink

This cup, crafted by Kiko Imahashi, the fourth-generation master of Kiko "貴古" Kiln, seamlessly blends the tradition of Kyo ware with designs that suit modern lifestyles.

The cup’s elegant form, created with Kiko's expert wheel-throwing skills, fits comfortably in the hand with perfect balance.

The shippou"七宝" pattern represents the Seven Treasures mentioned in Buddhist scriptures: gold, silver, lapis lazuli, crystal, giant clam, coral, and agate.

This pattern, with its endlessly interconnected circles, symbolizes good fortune, harmony, and enduring connections.

The design is applied using a technique that involves layering slip to create a raised, three-dimensional effect, showcasing the high level of craftsmanship required.

This cup is perfectly sized for a relaxing break, whether you're enjoying water, tea, or any beverage of your choice.
