This small handmade ceramic yunomi is designed for those who value quiet moments and thoughtful objects. Made from black clay and shaped by hand, this 50 ml cup is ideal for espresso, tea, or sake, offering a focused and intimate drinking experience. Its compact form and sculptural surface turn even a small serving into a mindful ritual.
The cup is created using an author’s handbuilding approach with expressive surface texture. Each line and subtle irregularity is intentional, giving the piece a strong visual character while remaining comfortable in the hand. This yunomi reflects a contemporary interpretation of traditional Japanese tea and tasting cups, where form, material, and touch are equally important.
