Made from fine ceramics, this set of Japanese tea cups comes with four cups, each with their own komon pattern. Komon, which was popular in the Edo period, refers to detailed patterns of various designs that back then, were made for textile printing. With a large variety of different designs made with this fine pattern style, these four tea cups display a checkered pattern, an arabesque pattern, a blooming chrysanthemum pattern, and finally a "sakura" or cherry blossom pattern. With an over all smooth and glossy black color on the outside of the cups, these patterns are displayed in a black alloy silver color. The inside of these cups are a simple off white color, making this classic black and white set easy to match with your favorite tea pot. Dishwasher and microwave safe, these Japanese tea cups are perfect for times when guests are visiting for tea so everyone will know which cup is theirs. Made in Japan.
