Description

RYUSEI Indigo Tea Set for Two

Inspired by the deep blues of the sea and the warmth of natural timber, the Indigo Tea Set for Two brings together Japanese-style pottery and a solid teak serving platter in a relaxed, beautifully balanced setting.

The set includes two ceramic tea cups in layered shades of indigo, cobalt and soft aqua. Their gently ridged surfaces and earthy exposed clay at the base give each cup a tactile, grounded character, while the changing blue glaze evokes the meeting of deep water and a lighter shoreline.

A coordinating 12.5 cm ceramic dish adds another layer of colour, with an expressive pool of blue, turquoise and green glaze at its centre. The three ceramic pieces are presented on a substantial round teak platter, whose rich natural grain and warm brown tones provide a striking contrast to the cool blues of the pottery.

Designed for two, this set creates a beautiful setting for Japanese tea, coffee or other quiet everyday rituals. The small dish can be used for wagashi, biscuits, chocolates or another shared accompaniment, making the set equally suited to afternoon tea and relaxed entertaining.

With its combination of rich colour, tactile pottery and natural wood, it also makes a distinctive housewarming, wedding or anniversary gift.

A Meeting of Pottery & Teak

The beauty of this set comes from the contrast between its materials.

Deep indigo and ocean-blue glazes give the pottery a cool, expressive quality, while the teak platter introduces warmth and a strong natural grain. Together, they create a setting that feels both grounded and coastal—equally at home in a contemporary interior or alongside other Japanese tableware.

The ceramic dish can be placed at the centre for something small to share, while the generous 25 cm platter keeps the complete setting together beautifully.
