Yazaemon Water Stream and Sakura Sake Cup
This sake cup is a beautifully decorated item reflecting the high-quality craftsmanship.
The pattern on the side of the cup is a combination of a water stream and cherry blossoms in full bloom. The water stream is a traditional auspicious Japanese pattern used for tableware and fabrics. The running water represents purity and is said to send off evil spirits.
The transparency of the sake looks beautiful in the smooth, white porcelain. The cup is the perfect weight to be held in your hand, and is just the right size to hold with two fingers.
