Tako Karakusa Japanese Cup

Sold Out $72.00

This beautiful 'antique inspired' tea 'cup' (originally this style of cup was used for soba but now commonly used for tea) bears the auspicious Tako Karakusa, or Octopus Vine, design in blue against the pale grey exterior of the piece.

This distinctive 'arabesque' design, in Japanese tradition and culture, represents healthy growth and is synonymous with luck, prosperity, and eternity. A good omen to be had with every mouthful! A lovely gift item - if only for yourself.
