Exclusivity Note: Each Kodachi cup is individually handcrafted, with subtle variations in form and finish that make every piece naturally unique.

The Kodachi Blue Round Teacup Set is pottery art designed for daily ritual, five cups that bring quiet consistency to a modern table.

Handcrafted by Kazuhiro Kojima, each yunomi carries the Nanasai Tenmoku glazing technique, a layered coloring process that reveals a Japanese tree in bloom beneath shifting blue tones.

Fine speckling, gentle tonal drift, and small differences from cup to cup show handwork and kiln timing, not repetition.

Ideal for sencha, hojicha, or coffee, from calm mornings to guests at night.

More Information

A Set Shaped by Hand, Not Repetition
Each cup in the Kodachi Blue Round Teacup Set is handcrafted by Kazuhiro Kojima, so every yunomi carries its own subtle variation.
Small differences in tone, glaze movement, and surface detail give the set a more personal and artisanal presence while keeping a natural sense of harmony across all five cups.
Blue Pottery Glaze with a Blooming Tree Motif
The defining feature of Kodachi is its Nanasai Tenmoku (七彩天目) glaze, a layered technique that reveals a Japanese tree in bloom beneath shifting blue tones.
Fine speckling and gentle tonal variation add depth to the surface, giving each cup a calm but expressive character.
Cultural Heritage of the Yunomi
As a yunomi (湯のみ) set, Kodachi follows the tradition of Japanese everyday teacups made for relaxed daily use.
The yunomi is closely linked to Japanese tea culture, where comfort, rhythm, and hospitality are part of the experience, especially when tea is shared with family or guests.

Care Guide

About your Kodachi Teacup Set
Though each Kodachi teacup is a handcrafted ceramic piece, this set is made for daily tea moments, not display.
A gentle touch helps the five cups keep their quiet charm.

Maintenance

No Harsh Appliances: Avoid the oven, microwave, and dishwasher to protect the handmade finish and delicate decoration.
Gentle Cleaning: Wash each cup by hand with warm water, mild non-abrasive detergent, and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could mark the surface.
Preservation: Dry each teacup with a soft cloth, then store with care, keeping the cups from touching rim to rim to prevent small chips and preserve the decoration.

The Artist

Kazuhiro Kojima

Location: Higashiomi, Shiga Prefecture, Japan
Technique: Nanasai Tenmoku
Tradition: Kyoto ware / Shigaraki ware

Born in 1972, Kazuhiro Kojima is a Japanese ceramic artist and son of Taro Kojima, founder of Nunobiki Kiln. Growing up surrounded by clay, fire, and his father's restless experimentation, the kiln was never a distant place. It was home.

After completing his studies at art college, he returned to Nunobiki and trained alongside his father, gradually developing a visual language distinctly his own. His signature subject is the owl, rendered using the Nanasai Tenmoku technique across a range of scales, from monumental ceramic statues to small, intimate accessories.

His pieces have been placed in hospitals, public institutions, and streetscapes, chosen for the sense of calm and quiet warmth they carry.

Kodachi Teacup Set Q&A

Can the teacups of the Kodachi set be used in the microwave or dishwasher?

The microwave is fine for everyday use.
The dishwasher is best avoided, as repeated cycles and strong detergents may gradually affect the glaze and surface detail.
Gentle handwashing is the better way to preserve the finish of each cup over time.

Is the Kodachi Teacup set made for everyday use?

Yes. These cups belong to the tradition of yunomi (湯のみ), Japanese teacups shaped for daily brewed tea.
They are meant to be enjoyed regularly, bringing a quieter, more refined feeling to ordinary moments without losing their practical role at the table.

What can be served in the Kodachi teacups?

The Kodachi set teacups are ideal for sencha, hojicha, and other brewed teas, but they also suit coffee or a small pour of liquor.
Their versatile size makes it easy to use across the day, whether for a calm tea break, after-dinner serving, or when sharing drinks with guests.

What gives the Kodachi Teacup set its distinctive character?

Each cup is handcrafted in Japan by Kazuhiro Kojima, so slight variations in tone, glaze movement, and surface detail naturally appear.
The Nanasai Tenmoku finish, with its layered blue tones and blooming tree motif, gives the set a presence that feels artistic and deeply rooted in Japanese pottery.

Would the Kodachi Japanese teacup set make a thoughtful gift?

Yes. A set feels especially well suited as a gift, as it is both beautiful and easy to enjoy when shared.
The handcrafted finish, refined blue glaze, and quiet link to Japanese tea culture give it a sense of care and individuality that feels far from ordinary gifting.

Are the Kodachi teacups considered yunomi?

Yes. Kodachi teacaps are yunomi (湯のみ), traditional Japanese teacups used for everyday brewed tea.
The word combines 湯 (yu), meaning “hot water,” and 飲み (nomi), meaning “drinking.” Unlike more formal tea vessels, a yunomi is made for relaxed daily use.

Do you ship to the US and EU, and is insurance included?

Yes. We ship worldwide, including the United States and Europe.
Insurance is included, so the set is protected during international delivery and travels with the level of care expected for handcrafted pottery made in Japan.
