Ryoen | Shigaraki Meoto Yunomi Set

Ryoen is a handmade Shigaraki Meoto Yunomi set, a complementary pair of Japanese tea cups by Hitoshi Minagawa of Tsuchinoko Kiln. Each cup is formed by hand using the tebineri technique, with its individual facets shaped one by one before firing in a traditional anagama kiln. The unglazed surfaces develop warm brown, beige, amber, and ash tones, with natural variations that make every pair unique. As a meoto set, the two cups are traditionally conceived as a husband-and-wife pairing. Together, they form a refined duo rooted in the Japanese tradition of tableware made for two. Made primarily for tea, Ryoen also suits coffee and herbal infusions. Microwave safe.
