This set of antique Kutani sake cups offers a unique blend of history and artistry, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts of traditional Japanese drinkware. These antique Kutani sake cups, crafted over 100 years ago during the Edo era, feature exquisite hand-painted designs that enhance any sake or tea experience with elegance and cultural depth. Each cup measures approximately 2.5 inches in height and 2.2 inches in width (about 6.3 cm × 5.7 cm) and weighs around 3.1 ounces (87 grams), making them comfortable to hold and drink from.


These vintage Kutani porcelain cups showcase a beautiful arabesque pattern cup highlighted by a delicate Chinese milk vetch design, bordered with contrasting indigo patterns near the base. The inner rim is adorned with a diamond-shaped motif, while the bottom reveals petal details, demonstrating the high craftsmanship typical of 19th century sake cups from the renowned Kutani kiln. This combination of vibrant colors and intricate patterns reflects the skill and artistic sense that define old Japanese ceramic cups.


The porcelain material ensures durability while providing a smooth lip feel that enhances tasting precision. Larger than standard sake cups, these porcelain sake vessels also function beautifully as Japanese tea cups set pieces, adding versatility to your collection or table setting.
