{"product_id":"p1000","title":"Bizen Ware Couple Teacups","description":"These Bizen-yaki couple teacups are by Kenji Nakamoto, who has been working with ceramics in Imbe since his university days and studied under Shin Isezaki. These pieces were pulled from the first firing of a handmade anagama kiln and are beautiful, featuring a lustrous clay texture and bright yellow sesame glaze. The cute, rounded, and generous form makes these cups suitable for small servings of soup, such as potage, and they are large enough to hold plenty of ice, making them versatile for hot or iced tea and coffee. These elegant pieces showcase the vibrant colors characteristic of anagama firing and are lovely cups that will brighten up your dining table.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPaper box\u003cbr\u003e\nRight in photo: Diameter 9.5cm x 9.3cm x Height 8.3cm\u003cbr\u003e\nLeft in photo: Diameter 9.8cm x 9.6cm x Height 8.1cm\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.tourakuen.jp\/guide_gift.php#a1\"\u003eAbout gift wrapping\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nKenji Nakamoto was born in Hiroshima Prefecture in 1975.
