Kutani Ware Kacho Fugetsu Mug

Kacho Fugetsu (花鳥風月) means "flower, bird, wind and moon". It is a Japanese phrase for appreciating the beauty of nature through the seasons, and it has inspired artists and poets for centuries. On this mug, that idea is brought to life in fine, hand-painted detail that rewards a closer look every time you pick it up.

Kutani ware has been made in Ishikawa Prefecture since 1655 and is known for its vivid overglaze enamels, applied by hand and fired on to the glaze. With a 230ml capacity, it is an everyday mug for tea or coffee that also makes a meaningful gift for anniversaries, birthdays or anyone who loves traditional Japanese art.

I bought this one on a whim

I bought this one on a whim, but this mug has become my favourite. I don't think the picture does the mug justice in real life the mug is just gorgeous. The hand painted bird is so bright and really sets perfectly against the light sage colour of the cup. I will be getting more of this type of mug, the shape is really nice and easy to hold the handle as previously i've struggled with mug handles
in the past not being particularly ergonomic. But holding this is not an issue at all. Really happy with this purchase. Delivery and packaging was excellent.
