Antique Bizen Ware Cup 2
Product Description
A traditional antique Japanese bizen ware cup. This elegant pottery is crafted using historical bizen ware techniques, providing a smooth, unglazed, safe drinking experience. Featuring a simple form and wood fired finish, this cup is sure to elevate your tea-making experience.
The exterior and interior of the ceramic has a smooth tactile finish due to it being wood fired and left unglazed – honouring the clays natural beauty.
Bizen ware or Bizen-yaki (備前焼) is a type of Japanese pottery traditionally from Bizen province, presently a part of Okayama prefecture.
Bizen is characterized by significant hardness due to high temperature kiln firing. Common earthen-like, reddish-brown colours appear due to the absence of glaze and organic markings resulting from the wood firing process.
We recommend pairing with the Bizen Teapot (sold separately).
