Description from the seller
Tachikichi Kyoto (Founded 1752) – 5 Porcelain Tea Cups with Gold Botanical Motif & Original Box
Tachikichi たち吉 – Set of 5 Porcelain Tea Cups with Original Wooden Box (Founded 1752, Kyoto)
An elegant set of five porcelain tea cups by Tachikichi, a historic Kyoto ceramic brand founded in 1752. With over 270 years of tradition, Tachikichi is renowned for combining refined Japanese aesthetics with functional tableware design.
Each cup is finished in a vivid yellow-green glaze, decorated with delicate gilt botanical vines and small birds. The flowing composition gives the set a graceful and harmonious appearance. The interior is glazed in smooth white porcelain, creating a refined contrast with the richly ornamented exterior. A subtle gold rim enhances the elegance.
The underside of each cup bears the Tachikichi mark. The set is preserved in its original wooden storage box, adding both authenticity and collectibility.
A beautifully decorative and functional sencha cup set that embodies Kyoto craftsmanship.
