Product Description

The wind god "Fuujin" and the thunder god "Raijin" are a pair of deities in Japanese mythology and religion that are believed to symbolize natural phenomena. The wind god is the god of the wind, and since the wind has a great influence on the natural world and people's lives, wind gods are believed to pray for the stability and safety of the wind.

 

The god of thunder presides over lightning and electric shocks, symbolizing the power and terror of the natural world. He is worshipped to pray for safety in life. The god of thunder is important in expressing people's aspirations for their lives and has influenced traditional Japanese culture.

 

Teacups are called "Yunomi" in Japanese. It is a vertical, cylindrical teacup commonly used for drinking Japanese tea by hand. Because of its large capacity, the area where the tea comes into contact with the air is small, which means that it does not get cold easily.

How to care for Kutani ware

Care and Maintenance

Adorned with exquisite floral colors and gold paint doesn’t mean it was designed just for display. 

Kutani pottery was designed and made for daily joy. 

With proper care and knowledge, this timeless piece promises years of delightful use.​

Hand washing is recommended whenever possible

You can use a soft sponge and a mild detergent to clean the dish. It is important to wash gently with a soft sponge or cloth.​ 

While you can use a dishwasher, we recommend hand washing as much as possible for some items such as those made of gold and silver, which tend to peel off after a long period of use.​

Be careful with microwave ovens

Do not use products made of gold or silver in the microwave or oven. 

Sparks may fly off and cause the surface to become dirty or damaged.​

Rapid temperature change

Do not use products made of gold or silver in the microwave or oven. 

Sparks may fly off and cause the surface to become dirty or damaged.​
