Japanese Cat Collection Sushi Teacup - 300ml

From Yamaka Shoten's nekokizuku series, this yunomi is wrapped in a parade of hand-drawn cats — a tabby rolling on its back, a grey cat sitting up begging, a calico strolling past with its tail up — with paw prints and a little “nya—” and “goro goro” scattered between them. The line work is soft pencil style on white porcelain, so it reads as illustration rather than cartoon.

At 300ml it is the standard sushi-shop teacup size — tall and straight-sided, comfortable to cup in both hands, and roomy enough for sencha, hojicha or genmaicha. It comes in its own kraft box with a “Thank you” sticker, ready to give.

Use & Care
  • Care guide: How to care for handmade Japanese tableware.
  • Microwave & dishwasher: Most of our tableware handles both, but pieces with gold or metallic accents should stay out of the microwave — check each product page.
  • First use: A quick wash in warm water is all new pieces need.
  • Stacking: Place a cloth or paper between stacked pieces to protect glazes from scratching.
  • Stubborn stains: A soak in warm water with a little baking soda lifts tea and coffee stains gently.
