Enami Cup - Shintaro Enami


A beautiful and highly functional cup for enjoying tea. Artist Shintaro Enami, of Shigaraki, had this to say bout the design:

During my student days, while studying abroad in Shanghai, I once saw a mug with a built-in tea strainer. At the time, I never imagined I would become a ceramic artist, so I didn't pay much attention to the tableware. However, when I became a ceramic artist and started designing my own original pieces, the image of that tea strainer mug came back to me as a faint memory, and I decided to try making my own version. It's very convenient when I'm drinking tea alone, and it's one of my favorite pieces.

Shintaro Enami

Born in Kobe in 1989, Enami was raised in close connection to clay and craft, inspired by his grandfather, who was a traditional Shigaraki-ware artisan. He studied ceramics at the Shigaraki Ceramic Technology Training Institute before apprenticing for five years with Tetsuya and Momoko Otani. His work reflects a deep respect for material and a desire to create vessels that integrate naturally into contemporary life. In 2025, he became independent, establishing his own studio in Shigaraki.

An unwavering commitment to quality.
