Description

Pour chilled sake or white wine into this glossy footed cup and the pink cherry blossoms come up through the glaze. It is a small, deliberate moment for a quiet evening or a table of guests.

Cherry blossom sake cup with a Japanese-style design for elegant everyday sipping

Solves
  • plain tableware lacks character
  • need for an attractive sake or tasting vessel

Chill your sake, and the blossoms bloom.

Plain white cups make a tasting feel ordinary. Pour cold sake into this glossy footed cup and watch pink cherry blossoms appear as it chills.

A glossy white cup with a blossom that waits

White footed cup with pink blossom tree and black trunk, angled view

A cup that changes with the cold

The glaze shows its cherry blossoms when the liquid is cold, below roughly 17-22°C. Pour chilled sake or white wine and the tree appears as the drink settles into the bowl. Pour room-temperature water or tea and the cup stays plain white, so chill your drink first.

Hand-applied blossom design

The pink and sumi black tree is applied by hand onto a glossy white glaze. The brushwork is visible up close, and the trunk runs up the outside of the bowl. It reads as Japanese-style without looking like a print.

Chill it, pour it, watch the blossoms appear

  1. 1
    Chill the drink

    Cool the sake or white wine in the fridge. The glaze only shows its blossoms below roughly 17-22°C, so the drink needs to be properly cold.

  2. 2
    Pour straight from the chill

    Move the bottle to the table and pour right away. A cup of room-temperature tea will not bring the blossoms up, so keep the reveal for chilled drinks.

  3. 3
    Watch the blossoms come up

    As the liquid cools the glaze, the pink tree comes into view. Sip slowly, and pour the next round the same way.

Simple care keeps the blossoms looking fresh

  • Hand wash

    Use a soft sponge and mild soap. Skip the dishwasher.

  • Skip abrasives

    Scouring pads dull the glossy glaze and wear the blossom decal.

  • Dry right away

    Dry the cup as soon as you rinse it so the glaze stays clear.

Questions and answers

Will the blossoms appear with room-temperature water or tea?
w
Wanelo · seller

No. The glaze shows its cherry blossoms only when the liquid is cold, below roughly 17-22°C. Room-temperature water, tea or wine leaves the cup looking plain, so the reveal depends on chilling the drink first.

How cold does the drink need to be?
w
Wanelo · seller

Chilled sake or white wine from the fridge gets into the right range. A short stay in the fridge or freezer is enough. Long freezer stays are unnecessary, and the care notes advise against them.

Is it a real sake cup or just decoration?
w
Wanelo · seller

It is a working cup. The shallow, wide bowl and raised foot suit sipping sake, white wine or tea. Pair it with a set of for a mixed table and it still holds its own.

Is it worth it for a cup that only looks special?
w
Wanelo · seller

One cup changes every chilled pour it is used for. You do not need a new themed set for each gathering. Each tasting costs nothing beyond the drink, and the cup is ready for the next one.

Can I use it every day?
w
Wanelo · seller

Yes. It works for an everyday pour, a quiet evening or tea. Hand wash it with a soft sponge and mild soap, dry it straight away, and the glaze stays clean.
