One is a deep glossy cobalt blue with a rounded belly; one is a crackled ivory-cream glaze with a fine allover craquelure and a rough, sandy texture; one has a marbled grey-and-white surface with a matte, almost stone-like finish and a flared, faceted rim; and the last is a rich oxblood-red glaze mottled with dark brown-black breaking, with a pale rim where the glaze thins. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEach cup has its own footprint and proportions — no two share a mold or a maker's hand — making this a set for someone who wants variety in a sake or tea cup collection rather than uniformity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDetails:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Origin: Japanese\/East Asian ceramic tradition, studio pottery (kiln\/maker unconfirmed per cup — let me know if you have provenance on any of them)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Form: Four guinomi (sake cups), each a distinct silhouette and size\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Glaze: Cobalt blue (glossy); crackled ivory-cream (matte, fine craquelure); marbled grey (matte, stone-like); oxblood red with dark mottled breaking (glossy)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Decoration: Glaze-driven variation; no painted motifs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Base: Varies by cup — please see photos for footring detail on each\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Condition: Good vintage\/secondhand condition — please see photos for any chips, glaze wear, or crazing beyond the characteristic crackle on the ivory cup\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Quantity: Set of 4, sold together (mismatched by design)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Dimensions: Approx.
