I gifted my nephew and his bride to be with a Tenmokus pot and pair of cups for a wedding gift, and was so impressed with it, I knew I would eventually be buying one for myself! I chose the comet teapot and Nebula teacup as the colors were a good match- I could not find a matched teapot and cup set in either of those patterns but these complement each other. The cup is very generously sized and thick walled enough not to be overly hot when holding the cup. The set is perfect for my evening tea break! I especially like the beautiful box each piece comes packaged in. It ensures the pieces stay safe with no chipping or cracks.
