Description

This Kutani ware Ochoko (sake cup) can add glamour to your dining table.
About the Design – Yoshidaya Style & Standing Hollyhock (Tachi Aoi,Hu Aoi)
This small cup features a traditional Yoshidaya style, one of the most iconic painting techniques in Kutani ware. Originating in the 19th century, Yoshidaya ceramics are known for their bold use of green, yellow, purple, and dark blue—without red—creating a rich and elegant look.
The motif is the Standing Hollyhock (Tachi Aoi), a symbol of strength, growth, and nobility in Japanese culture. Its upright form and vibrant leaves reflect nature’s vitality and grace, beautifully captured in this timeless design.
The gorgeous coloring is one of the characteristics of Kutani ware, the high-quality Japanese porcelain produced in Ishikawa Prefecture.
The cup’s capacity is 2.37 oz, the ideal size for daily use.
The cup will make a great gift together with the Yorakumon small plate.
