"Shinogimon" [7 round cup] is round and plump, so it looks adorable somehow. On a different note, matte glazes in deep and subdued colors, [White] [Brown] [Gray] are applied. Overall, this cup seems very atmospheric in a traditional Japanese way. Let's spend a relaxing time brewing tea from green tea leaves to slowly drink exquisite hot green tea with "Shinogimon" Cup!
