Large Japanese Mug, Red and Black Flowers

A large mug covered in a scattering of red and black flowers on a sand background.

Small coral red and black flowers mingle with fine stems that form a kind of plant trellis on a sandy beige background. The lively, warm decoration covers the whole body of the mug.

The base is left as raw clay, and the straight handle takes on blue-green reflections. The glazed interior is a pale water green that adds a fresh note.

At 13 cm high and 400 ml, it suits large teas, coffees or hot chocolates. In Japan, these large handled mugs are also used for beer.

It is part of the shop’s series of large 400 ml mugs, available in several patterns in the same size: one for each member of the family, or a collection to build.
