{"product_id":"japanese-arita-yaki-lidded-porcelain-tea-cup","title":"Japanese Arita-Yaki Lidded Porcelain Tea Cup","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Japanese imported Arita-yaki porcelain tea cup with lid embodies the refined heritage of traditional ceramic artistry from Saga Prefecture, Japan—an area renowned for producing Arita ware since the early Edo period. Revered for its porcelain craftsmanship, Arita-yaki is distinguished by its luminous white body and vivid cobalt underglaze, a technique that has been carefully preserved and elevated across centuries. This piece draws from that legacy, featuring richly saturated indigo-blue tones that transition naturally in depth and intensity, forming a serene composition of Seigaiha (wave) and Shippo (seven treasures) patterns—both classic auspicious motifs symbolizing harmony, continuity, and good fortune.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandcrafted with meticulous attention to detail, the cup showcases flowing, rhythmic linework that evokes a sense of calm movement across its surface, blending traditional Japanese aesthetics with a playful, contemporary sensibility. A charming “little baby figure” clings to the inner cup wall, adding a whimsical touch that contrasts beautifully with the disciplined elegance of the exterior design. The lid and knob are thoughtfully engineered in a warm coffee-toned accent, harmonizing with the double-layer lid structure for both visual balance and practical insulation. The porcelain body carries a subtle bluish-white undertone, smooth and jade-like in texture, finished with a fine, glossy glaze that reflects light with quiet sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eBeyond its visual appeal, the cup reflects the high standards of Japanese ceramic craftsmanship—durable porcelain firing, precise glazing control, and strict quality refinement associated with traditional kiln production. It is designed for everyday use yet carries the aura of artisanal heritage, making even a simple tea or coffee moment feel elevated.\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teavra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45687215161404,"sku":null,"price":70.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/2996\/5372\/files\/1_20de9e3e-5a04-4073-9a6e-18e58d299d1b.jpg?v=1782198748","url":"https:\/\/teavra.com\/products\/japanese-arita-yaki-lidded-porcelain-tea-cup","provider":"Teavra","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
