This is a beautiful Japanese teacup with a lid. It is thin and light, so it is easy to hold and is perfect when entertaining guests. It has a simple and modern look with its classic tokusa pattern.

Beloved since the Edo period (1603–1868 CE), this pattern of straight vertical lines is inspired by the Japanese plant tokusa, known in English as rough horsetail. It is regarded as a symbol of growth and prosperity as it grows unwaveringly upwards.

Pair with the teapot in the same tokusa pattern to create a thoughtful set—perfect for quiet evenings enjoying Japanese tea.
