Nanban Earthenware Sake Set for Two by Kumagai — a dark earthenware pourer and two little cups, made for sharing.
Made in Japan by Kumagai.
The Design Story
Kumagai makes earthenware for the Japanese table: unhurried shapes in a dark clay that look better the more they are used.
Why You’ll Love It
Some sets are about the occasion, and this one makes the occasion. The low pourer and its two cups have a weathered, earthy surface that feels good in the hand and looks better by candlelight. Pour sake for two, or a strong green tea, and the evening slows down.
Made for Real Life
Wash everything by hand and let it dry completely before storing. For warm sake, heat it in a water bath and pour it in.
