| Wild flower teaset by Kisen Teapot and five matching cups from the Kisen kiln in Arita. The exterior of both teapot and cups are decorated with colorful wild flowers typically found in the Fall. The vivid colors are particularly eye-catching against the pure white glaze so typical of Arita yaki. The interior rim of the cups feature "Yourakumon",dark blue sometsuke design inspired by Indian motifs and resembling beads on a string.
