AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a unique artisan-made Japanese ceramic cup and saucer (plate) set.

The piece features a soft white base accented with vivid turquoise blue and earthy brown tones, creating a modern yet warm and expressive design. Both the cup and plate are decorated with geometric motifs and carved line details, highlighting the texture and character of handmade pottery.

The cup has a naturally irregular, organic shape, while the elongated plate features a free-form design rather than a conventional round or square shape. Subtle variations in the glaze, surface texture, and form give the set the distinctive character of an artist-made ceramic piece.

It is ideal for serving coffee or tea together with sweets or a small dessert. It can also be enjoyed as a decorative piece or collectible by those who appreciate contemporary Japanese ceramics and handcrafted tableware.
