I like the slender trough in this cup, and how shiny it is. I feel the picture is slightly misleading: the bloom of this tenmoku is black, at least for me. the whole cup glistens, however, and parts of it might flash. Good cup.

Your products are beautiful. I've bought "Tears" for myself as I've lost some dear friends in the last 6 months and it gives me great comfort. I've also bought 2 other teacups as gifts.
Carol B.
I've ordered three pieces, all of them gorgeous with a story behind each one. I ordered "Tears" for a friend of mine that had just lost her brother and she loved it. Quick and easy shipping.
John B.
Absolutely fantastic!
Christine F.
So pretty. I love it!
Aileen S.
I purchased this cup, Tears, in honor of my daughter who passed in September 2022. We shared a love of tea and the tears pattern was perfect. Love it
Mary P.
Arrived in perfect condition, each tea cup (I ordered 3) packed in a lovely velvet-lined square sturdy box with a lovely metal closure feature. Cups are chunkier than I expected, but beautiful nonetheless! Have not used them yet, but looking forward to it!
Yvonne M.
Super fast shipping, elegant packaging and stunning finish. It is so beautiful, it takes my breath away.
Bill R.
I purchased the Tears teacup for my son. He loved it, then I sent him the video on how they’re made and he was so delighted!
Leslie N.
All of these cups are just wonderful and this is no exception,my collection continues to grow!
Kaleigh M.
This one isn't as blue as pictured, more a silvery grey, but it's still gorgeous, very pink 'tears'. This tea cup is a bit small, so you can't out as much tea in it, but it's a beautiful, beautiful piece of art and I'd definitely recommend it!
Robert D.
I think this is my favorite of all the ones I purchased.
Elisabeth S.
This was a gift, it arrived extremely quickly and my mother-in-law loves it!
paul w.

Julie T.
I bought 3 of these as gifts & I have no doubt they will love them! Each one is absolutely gorgeous & unique in its own way. Beautifully packaged & ready to gift!
Karen B.
I bought this one and one other as gifts. They're both so beautiful that I considered keeping them for myself.
Barbara F.
I have been admiring these tea cups for over a year and finally splurged on one for me. It came very quickly and it is beautiful. I liked it so much I ordered a seond different tea cup for me which has not yet arrrived.
Kimberly R.
I purchased four different tea cups to give as Christmas gifts. All were lovely and customer service was excellent and personal. Looking forward to shopping more items for myself!
Elizabeth E.
Beautifully made
Sandea K.
This was a gift for my granddaughter who loves everything Japanese. Since I haven't seen it I asked her to rate it. She thought it was very pretty and very well made. I was impressed that she received it 2 days after I ordered it.
Craig N.
Wonderful craftsmanship…these are worth every penny! Love the feel of the cup in your hand. The colors and patterns are gorgeous!
Thank you so much!!
Rhonda D.
My husband of 34 years died two months ago. I was simply drawn to this cup, because we would drink tea every evening. I picked it because my tears are very sad ones now; I pray that one day I shall drink tea from it and shed happy tears.
Lisa J.
I expected it to have the blue tones seen in the photo but it is actually mostly black/dark Grey. I bought it because of the expected blue colors.
Blaine D.
Beautiful thick glaze provides a deep beautiful colour
Chris B.
This Cup Is Beautiful. I Tend To Want To Collect Them And Put Them On Display.
My Only Complaint Is That It Is So Small. But...
Small Or Not. It Is A Beautiful Piece Of Artwork...
Francine G.
Beautiful cup, lovely glazing, I love the tears design, it's very shiny and just the right size.
GLENN T.
Sunflower, Artic and Tears. I like the pattern of the cup and the shape of the lip. Its a pretty one to take a sip of your drink.
Debbie E.
This was an early Christmas present for a dear friend. She absolutely loves the design.
Kah Lai P.
This was the only disappointing piece, as it looks like I was sent the Sunrise rather than Tears which i wanted. Both the interior and exterior was Sunrise, different from the more sporadic dots of Tears..
Nancy C.
Amazing contrast of colors.
Richard .
Lovely works of art! Beautiful, and as described! Honestly however, the cups are a little small!
The shipping was VERY prompt!!!
Kimberly N.
Definitely a conversation piece.
Kimberly Y.
Start to finish, this was an exceptional purchase.
First off, 2 min. After I hit the "pay" button, I worried that my cups (I ordered 2) would come in a single dual compartment box. As these were two separate gifts I panicked. Reached out to Customer service and within minutes received a very courteous reply from Yuki. She assured me that my cups would come in their own little boxes. Ok! Yay!
This was early evening, Tues. Sept. 21, 2021 btw.
Just after midnight US Central time, I had my FedEx shipping #. Just WOW!
By that 2nd night, my cups were at US Customs, Anchorage, Alaska.
Today, Sept. 24, 3 DAYS after ordering, they arrived AT MY DOOR in Louisiana.
Need I say more?
John L.
They are beautiful and the shipping was amazingly fast. Thanks
Debby G.
It is absolutely gorgeous
Pamela G.
Spots of shine make this cup interesting to use with a strong black tea. Just enough to keep the mind going!
Karen C.
The teacup I bought was beautiful. It arrived swiftly and in perfect shape. Even the box it came in was nice. I could not be more pleased.
LK
It is absolutely beautiful! I can't wait to give it to my recipient.
Christine R.
Just beautiful as the photo !!!!
Sara H.
I bought this as a gift fir a tea drinking friend. She loved the packaging as well as the cup. She shared she has had her first cup and liked the warmth of holding it in het hands
Janel C.
My experience was wonderful. I can't post a pic as I sent them as a gift. They just opened them. They went out of their mind over them. They absolutely Love them. So much so they refuse to use them. They decided to display them. The box you sent them in, they were so impressed. Thank you for including my note. Will be ordering again for myself. Thank you so much.
Vincent M.
Amazing tea cup, looks beautiful. Couldn’t have gotten more for the money
Karen W.
This teacup is a gift for an artist friend, I know he will completely love it.
When I unpacked it I was struck by how truly beautiful it is.
Linda D.
As gorgeous in real life as in the picture!
LISA C.
Beautiful tea cup great quality fast shipping
Eve R.
Beautiful to look at Beautiful to hold.
Kelli W.
I bought one of each, one handled and this one - which I cup into both hands as I sip. I feel so at peace doing so. The quality is impressive. The beauty of the glaze is a marvel. We just keep looking at it at different angles to find hidden gems of flare and light. I asked my husband to purchase me on of these for all of my gifts going forward. They are just lovely.
Lynn S.
Beautiful and just as pictured. Love, love these teacups. Can’t decide which is my favorite!
Judith S.
The color is much darker than on the website, and I would not have ordered it if I'd seen that first. The craftsmanship is good but the details get really lost. I'll be mindful of that if I ever order a blue/silver combo.
Marissa R.
Purchased for a gift and I could not be happier with the quality! It's a beautiful cup, I cannot wait to purchase again.
Jonathan L.
Stylish and sexy
Adrienne D.
The mug is absolutely beautiful, but MUCH smaller than I expected. I recommend showing the scale of the product. I was expecting a large tea mug for at work. Not very practical with the few ounces it actually holds.
Gloria K.
A black color with large “tears.”
Judy C.
My cup is black instead of navy blue- very unique and mysterious! A work of art!
Catherine R.
Just as I expected it to be: Precious!
Mary Alice B.
This was a gift!
They loved them!
Gregory B.
So far this is my favorite. I will probably make additional purchases.
Christopher C.
So pretty. Can’t wait to gift it. Or use it. Undecided now
Barbara S.
I was blown away with the depth created by the glaze. The beautiful, simple cup design is wonderful to hold. The shipping was unbelievably fast. A+
Robin S.
Absolutely beautiful in the packaging box is exquisite!
Cathryn L.
Beautiful. Lovely packaging!
Charlie Q.
it's just as beautiful as the photos: a metallic sheen ranging from silver to bronze to copper, with undertones of a rich, vibrant inky blue-black. i love holding this cup to the light to watch the colors shift, even more so when it's full of tea! but pictures cannot convey my favorite aspect of this cup: the texture. i can't stop running my fingers over the ripples and bubbles in the glaze, alternatively glossy and matte, which contrasts perfectly with the fine grain of the unglazed base. shipping was quick and it arrived well-packaged in a sturdy decorative padded box.
Patricia N.
I am gifting this to my niece who recently lost her mom, my sister. They both love to drink tea and I wanted to get her something very special. I chose "Tears" since they can be both happy and sad. It is a beautiful crafted piece of art work and I hope she really enjoys it.
Elizabeth B.
Even better in person! Gorgeous! Wish you had this as a teapot!
Betsy E.
I was so happy to get the two tea cups I ordered. I was also pleased that when I requested two single boxes, instead of a double box, because I was giving one tea cup to two separate people, I received 2 single boxes. I'd be glad to return the double box too, if Tenmokus would like me to do so. Thanks for the extra help you provided, I'm glad I have two beautiful tea cups to give to my friends.
sm i.
the cup is very pretty, not quite as many 'tears' in the pattern as in the sample picture but overall pattern and colour is very similar. it is on display in my living room :) hope to buy more in the future
David R.
It arrived in a timely manner, well packaged. The cup is stunning and very fairly priced. It's the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one.
Heidi L.
remarkable craftsmanship!
Grant D.
Well made . One of a kind
MICHAEL M.
Gave as a gift. She loved them. Very beautiful, just like the pictures.

Wonderfully made, beautiful to look at and use! So unique!!
100% Satisfaction!!
Sandra D.
It's a Christmas gift for my nephew, he's going to love it! I will be buying more of your products in the future. Very happy with my purchase.
Margaret B.
I’m really impressed with my purchase.
It’s supposed to be a gift but I’m struggling to part with it.....I love it.
Shannon G.
Bought these as a perfect goodbye gift for a manager who is retiring- Tears and Sunflowers were so appropriate. The cups are beautiful and definitely an obvious work of craftsmanship versus mass production.
christine u.
Superbes tasses présentées dans un très beau coffret.
Elles sont vraiment originales.
fiona r.
I have this in mind for my friend for christmas. She will love the colours
Shannon N.
I bought these tea cups for a gift, and I am thrilled with the presentation and the beauty of the cups. I look forward to seeing the products develop.
Heather J.
I cannot share photos as this is going to be part of a Christmas present for my son who just got back from Japan. These cups are absolutely stunning. I know for sure I will be ordering more
Barbara S P.
My purchases are Christmas gifts so I cannot give you a review. I can say that they look lovely and I will give you an update then.
Shellie O.
I ordered three cups (succulent and Fairy 2 in addition to this one). All three arrived quickly and are stunning!! Well crafted works of art. Love these! Planning on ordering a teapot soon.
Rebecca U.
I ordered some tea cups as a gift and they were shipped quickly, packaged securely, and turned out to be as beautiful as the pictures would suggest - my mother absolutely loves them.
Janet H.
I purchased these exquisite cups as a gift for my best friend. She loves then, telling me that sipping her tea from these “works of art” brings her joy. They arrived beautifully boxed, perfect for gift giving.
Thomas R.
Arrived quickly and safely...very satisfied, over all.
penny d.
Beautiful and came quickly
John R.
Beautiful detail and coloring! Workmanship is second to none!
Antonia B.
This pattern is beautiful, the shine peeks out from the dark top glaze with an iridescence. The color of my bowl is quite different than the photo in line but I still love it! I understand that each bowl will be unique with this technique.
Justin L.
When I first stumbled across this cup it was through random advertisement. I debated on it for about 2 months before deciding to make the purchase. Every comment I have seen is correct in that pictures simply don't convey how aesthetically pleasing these cups are. Good solid weight, beautiful design and I especially was pleasantly surprised about the kanji character inscriptions on the bottom of each cup. I have used it for tea, but because I'm a barbarian this picture shows sake in the cup. Definitely recommend and hope to snag one of the teapots some day.
Elaine W.
It is beautiful . Everything I thought it would be.
Melanie R.
I bought these as a gift for a teacher who is a connoisseur of tea and accoutrement. I was delighted at the beauty and quality. He says it has a great fell in the hand when drinking.
Delivered in under a week.
Adriana S.
The tea cups were absolutely beautiful. They were given as a gift to a dear friend. She just loves them. We cannot wait to use them over some tea and conversation. I will be ordering some for myself very soon. Thank you for your beautiful craftsmanship.
Heather M.
The cup is beautiful, although the colours are considerably less vibrant in person than on the website. The packaging makes a very special present.
Janet E.
I bought a pair of the tea cups to give as a gift. I think they are really beautiful and well made. I’m very happy that I can be happy to give this gift.
Suzanne C.
I am exremely happy with my purchase. I bought a set of coordinating tea cups crafted to a very high standard with beautiful glazes. They are almost too beautiful to use but they beg to be held.
CELINA G.
beautiful and exquisite
Virginia O.
The shape is perfect fits really well in the hand. The vessel remains cool to touch when drinking the tea. I love the feel of the rim on my lips. Soft and smooth. Beautiful cup. Thanks
