This cozy Japanese teacup features twin sparrows perched side by side on a branch close to each other. It is crafted under the supervision of Nakamura Toshito, known as one of the top artists of Kutani ware in fine detailed color painting.

His famous work featuring sparrows is highly appreciated for its delicate and gentle line drawing with neutral colors and detailed design.

The sparrow is believed to ward off bad luck and is a symbol of family prosperity and safety.

The shape is crafted by a potter's wheel, and you can feel the warmth and comfort of holding it in your hand.
