TB398 - Tea Cup set of Tachikichi たち吉
A Tachikichi たち吉 tea cup set, decorated with a bold and playful dragon (辰 / tatsu) motif inspired by the Japanese zodiac.
Each cup has a clean white body with a simple cylindrical form, allowing the colorful central design to stand out beautifully. The stylized dragon is rendered in vivid red, deep blue and golden yellow, framed within a red-edged medallion and accompanied by the character 辰, the zodiac sign for the Dragon. The graphic design has a lively, slightly folk-art quality that gives the set a cheerful retro character.
In the Japanese zodiac, the dragon (辰) is associated with strength, vitality, ambition and good fortune. Dragon-themed tableware is especially popular as an auspicious gift or commemorative item during a Dragon year, while also appealing to collectors of Japanese zodiac ceramics.
Tachikichi たち吉 was founded in 1752 during the mid-Edo period in Kyoto and is one of Japan’s most respected producers and retailers of ceramics and tableware. With more than 260 years of history, the brand is known for combining refined Kyoto aesthetics with practical everyday design, creating tableware that is both elegant and highly usable.
