This handmade ceramic yunomi guinomi cup is created for those who appreciate the calm pleasure of using exclusive, thoughtfully crafted tableware. Designed as a small kurinuki tea cup with a 100 ml capacity, it supports focused tea or sake rituals, where form, texture, and scale matter as much as function.
Named Guinomi, this cup reflects the quiet intimacy of small ceremonial vessels. Crafted from black stoneware clay using an author’s interpretation of the kurinuki technique, each piece reveals natural surface depth and subtle irregularities that embody the wabi-sabi approach. Created by Ukrainian ceramic artist Andrii Tyrsa, this cup represents a restrained balance between material, touch, and everyday use.
Use
This handmade ceramic guinomi cup is ideal for tea, sake, or other small servings. The handleless form rests naturally in the hands, enhancing warmth and sensory awareness. Compact yet expressive, it functions both as a daily ritual object and as a refined, meaningful gift for tea lovers and collectors of handmade ceramics.
Materials & making
The cup is made from high-fire black stoneware clay and finished with food-safe glazes. It is shaped and carved by hand using an author’s kurinuki-based approach and fired at high temperatures to ensure durability for regular use. Natural variations in surface and texture are an essential part of the material and making process.
One of a kind
This guinomi cup is created as a single, one-of-a-kind piece. Differences in form, texture, and surface character reflect the handmade nature of the work. You will receive the exact cup shown in the photographs.
