Yunomi Cup - Hinoki Series #03

A smaller expression of the beloved Hinoki Series — these yunomi cups carry the same quiet strength and elegance as the matcha bowls, now reimagined in a hand-carved form for everyday tea moments.
Each cup is shaped and carved by hand, with flowing lines that mimic tree bark or ripples in water. The deep green glaze pools in the carved grooves, creating layers of depth and movement — no two are exactly alike, and that’s what makes them special.

Why You’ll Love It
These cups are small but full of presence — made for everyday tea, but with a weight and intention that makes you pause. The carved details catch the glaze in such beautiful, unexpected ways, and the form just feels good in your hand — grounded, sturdy, but still delicate in its own way.
They’re part of my Hinoki Series, inspired by the quiet strength of the Japanese hinoki tree — a reminder to stay rooted, slow down, and appreciate the small things.
And while I made them with tea in mind, I use them for so much more — a sake pour, a handful of olives, a little dip on the side of your plate, or even just sitting on a shelf catching the light. They're functional, but they also stand on their own as little sculptural pieces.
Each one is carved slowly, without a plan — just me, following the lines, letting the clay decide. Fired to last, and never made exactly the same way twice.

About the Hinoki Series
The Hinoki Series is inspired by the vibrant green color of the Hinoki tree, a symbol of purity, calmness, and serenity in Japanese culture. The tree’s rich, soothing green tones are reflected in this collection, evoking a sense of tranquility and elegance. The matcha bowls in this series are extra special, with a textured layer that requires more craftsmanship and attention to detail. This added layer not only enhances the visual appeal but also adds depth and character to each piece, making them perfect for your tea rituals.
