This one-of-a-kind guinomi sake cup is by Kusuo Baba, the second-generation Shin-emon. The demanding technique of layering glazes is used to capture the appearance of thunder and lightning.

The Raijin flat sake cup features a glaze pattern that suggests powerful flashes of lightning. Bold flows of black, yellow, and brown blend together, recalling rolling thunderclouds and the paths of bright flashes. Combined with the stable form of the flat cup, they create a distinctive presence in which stillness and movement coexist. The flow and color of the glaze differ in every piece, offering a unique scene shaped by nature.

Forms of tea ware that developed in China from the Song through the Ming dynasties were introduced to Japan, where the guinomi emerged as a cup for ordinary people to enjoy sake informally. Shin-emon Kiln's guinomi are smaller versions of tea cups from the Ming and Qing dynasties, making them versatile vessels for sake, tea, and other drinks.
