[Japan-exclusive series developed exclusively for Japan] This collection features the iconic design 'Mariathesia' from the Vienna Porcelain Workshop Augarten, known for being used as a bridal item by Empress Masako, and has been simply arranged for everyday use, with the motto 'Bringing Augarten celebrated as exceptional white into everyday life.' Why not enjoy tea time at the tea manners once popularized in Europe's renowned courts? Maria Theresa's design is a simple and weighty work colored only with the colors of fir wood, a symbol of hunting popular in the 18th century, featuring elegant floral motifs. It was originally given as a dinner set at the Augarten Palace, which was then Empress Mariathesia's hunting castle, and was named in honor of Empress Mariathery, who was a great supporter of Augarten. Even today, it remains beloved worldwide. A Japanese cup you can freely enjoy by combining it with your own tea bowl or small plate. Because we offer only cups, depending on the combination, they can be used for a wide range of purposes, from everyday use to hospitality.
