Where Earth Meets Art: The Banko Ware Tradition

From the revered kilns of Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, comes this exquisite Banko Ware (萬古焼) tea cup set.

You'll feel the subtle grit and organic imperfections – the hallmark of artisanal creation – making every set a distinct work of art and a direct connection to the earth and the soulful tradition of Japanese pottery.

The defining feature of this set is its captivating sandy texture and earthy, natural hues. This rough, yet refined finish provides a wonderfully tactile experience, inviting your fingers to explore its surface as you hold your warm tea. The subtle variations in color, from muted browns to warm grays, reflect the natural state of the clay, creating an understated elegance that complements any decor, from minimalist to rustic. These cups are designed to highlight the beauty of the tea itself, allowing its color and aroma to shine.
