Description from the seller

Item Description:

This is an elegant Japanese sake cup (guinomi) featuring a beautiful olive-green glaze with subtle color variations.

The cup showcases a refined celadon-style glaze that exhibits a lustrous, smooth surface with natural tonal shifts ranging from deeper forest green to lighter olive hues.

This type of green glaze is highly appreciated in Japanese ceramic traditions for its serene, contemplative quality.

The guinomi displays excellent craftsmanship with its well-proportioned form and comfortable size, making it ideal for enjoying premium sake.

The piece features a distinctive wavy rim design that adds visual interest and demonstrates the potter's skillful hand-forming technique.

The interior is coated with the same gorgeous green glaze, creating a unified aesthetic that enhances the sake-drinking experience.

The foot ring shows careful attention to detail, with a clean finish and stable base.

The glaze application is skillful, with natural variations that add character and authenticity to the piece.

These subtle imperfections and color gradations are characteristic of handcrafted Japanese ceramics and reflect the traditional aesthetic of embracing natural beauty.

The compact size and elegant form make it perfect for both daily sake enjoyment and special occasions, offering a refined vessel that enhances the appreciation of fine Japanese sake.

Seller's Story

We have been experienced as an antique dealer for more than a decade, we select and purchase high-quality products from all over Japan. I carefully select items with good taste, whether famous or not. I offer you an encounter with unknown Japanese goods. Owner Profile Name: Michito Nagahiro Born in 1986 in Sapporo, Hokkaido. From an early age, I have been fascinated by the beautiful and practical designs of Japanese art, antiques, and consumer products, as well as the mindset and dedication of craftsmen and artists. I frequently visited museums and solo exhibitions as part of my daily life. In 2012, under the guidance of a top mentor in the industry, I established myself as an antique dealer, handling a wide range of items, including Japanese antiques and artworks. Since 2017, I have specialized in selling Japanese antiques and fine art, primarily in Europe, achieving over 20,000 successful sales to date. In 2019, I launched a completely free service to support individuals in Japan who experience loneliness. This initiative involves personally visiting people, engaging in conversations, sharing meals, and, if necessary, providing career advice. More than 1,000 people reach out to me annually for support. Additionally, I am committed to promoting and supporting the sales of emerging artists whose work has not yet received public recognition. My philosophy goes beyond merely selling objects—I strive to convey the stories, history, and emotions embedded in each piece. By doing so, I aim to connect people with the lives of the artists and bring inspiration to those who encounter their work.
