Great little mug

Lovely style and colour. Not too big or heavy. Fits well in the hand.

Lovely Cup (Expect them to be different)

Lovely cup, but that depends on how you feel about continuity- they're definitely hand thrown. I initially bought the red one and it's one of my favorite tea cups, so I got a blue one. And while it's lovely too, they're different shapes and sizes; even though the spirit and theme of them is the same.

Kurasu packed the cups very well. Love the hand made cups even though each cup is of slightly difference size and weight it adds to the beauty of the craftsmanship.
