Nankei Sand Tea Cup

"The touch of raw unglazed ceramic gently softens your heart. Pause those busy hands, boil water, sip some tea, and let your heart unwind."  – Nankei Pottery

We are thrilled to showcase the beautiful works of Nankei Pottery, who have been crafting stunning ceramics since 1913. 

Nankei captures the heart of the Banko-yaki style. Simple, minimalistic, and effortless, these timeless tea pieces will enrich your tea time for years to come. 

The unglazed stoneware allows for a textured feel in the hands and also moderates astringency in the tea's brew – creating a pleasing, mellow flavor. 

Please note each piece is handmade and slight variations occur. Do not place mug directly on any heat source.  

Available in muted sandstone or matte black
