Description

The Kutaniyaki Shichifukujin Tea Cup Set is a masterful tribute to Japanese artistry, celebrating the Seven Lucky Gods (Shichifukujin, 七福神)—mythological figures cherished for bestowing fortune and prosperity. Each teacup is meticulously hand-painted by artisans, portraying the deities in fine detail with vivid color and elegant patterning that reflects the 350-year heritage of Kutaniyaki ceramics.

The exterior of each cup is adorned with intricate motifs of gourds and treasure fans, finished with a delicate ice-crackle glaze that adds texture and visual depth. This detailed brushwork, achieved through multiple layers of color and line, can require three to five days per piece—a testament to the artisan’s dedication to perfection. Beyond functional tableware, each cup is an individual work of art.

Presented in a handcrafted wooden box along with an informative booklet about the Seven Lucky Gods, this set is both a culturally rich gift and a collector’s treasure. Ideal for ceremonial use or display, it merges utility with aesthetic grandeur—an embodiment of Japanese craftsmanship designed to elevate everyday moments with grace and meaning.
