Inspiration & Craftsmanship

This design captures the breathtaking opulence of double-petaled peonies, traditional symbols of prosperity and elegant grace. The body utilizes the specialized Kohiki slip-coating technique to cultivate a deeply rustic, organically irregular surface texture. Over this dynamic foundation, a soft, misty purple gradient glaze is carefully applied to form a warm, comforting background.

The true soul of the cup rests in its multi-layered relief sculpture work. Every petal and fluttering butterfly contour is built up by hand using slip-trail dimensional painting techniques before receiving delicate underglaze color washes. This ensures that the vivid artwork is permanently sealed beneath a protective glass layers, giving the surface an enduring, fade-resistant luster that feels deeply textured and satisfyingly solid in your palm.

Key Features

• Dimensional Slip-Trail Relief: Crafted with raised, hand-painted peony borders that elevate the design into a tactile, three-dimensional masterpiece you can feel with every sip.

• Traditional Kohiki Texture Finish: Employs a historic slip-coating process over raw stoneware clay to yield a highly organic, slightly textured finish that celebrates minimalist beauty.

• Protective Underglaze Firing: Colored mineral pigments are applied entirely underneath the primary protective glaze layer, ensuring a food-safe, non-toxic, and permanently vibrant finish.

• Stable Handleless Choko Profile: Features a clean, slightly tapered geometric structure with a meticulously smooth, hand-polished foot ring that provides excellent tabletop stability without scratching delicate surfaces.
