Cone Yunomi/Tea Cup (Matte Black)

The Cone Yunomi from NANKEI POTTERY (南景製陶園) is a 170ml everyday tea cup shaped on a clean conical form. Made in the Banko-yaki tradition of Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, it pairs with the full Sencha Kyusu series. The exterior is unglazed Matte Black stoneware — iron-rich, non-absorbent clay that carries no flavour between teas, fired to a dry, even charcoal that deepens quietly with use. The interior is glazed with a soft grey-white finish so you can watch your tea as you pour.

Matte Black is fired from high-iron clay that does not absorb water — Every session starts clean; the clay is a little richer by the end. At 170ml it holds a generous yunomi pour; the conical form stacks for neat storage.
