Traditional Hospitality Set | Authentic Blue & White Lidded Chawanmushi Cups (5-Piece Collection)

Embrace classic Japanese culinary hospitality with a substantial five-piece chawanmushi set designed for family gatherings or dinner parties. Handcrafted in Japan from premium porcelain, this set presents a striking, high-contrast blue and white pattern that brings an elegant, timeless look to your table. Traditionally, a standard Japanese hosting set includes five pieces rather than four, ensuring you are always fully prepared for guests. Each cup features a matching porcelain lid that traps steam and keeps condensation drips out of your delicate egg base, resulting in a smooth, bubble-free, restaurant-quality custard. Boasting an extra-generous 275ml wide-profile silhouette, these versatile cups double beautifully as gourmet baker ramekins or elegant presentation vessels for hot stews, side dishes, chilled parfaits, or green tea.

Premium Artisan & Performance Features:
  • Oven-Safe Culinary Baking: Thanks to premium kiln-firing, these versatile cups can step away from traditional stovetop steaming to bake modern soufflés, warm crumbles, or mini gratins inside a dry conventional oven.
  • Traditional 5-Piece Hospitality Set: Tailored to the classic Japanese serving standard where dining and tea sets are produced in sets of five to welcome an optimal number of guests gracefully.
  • Condensation Shield Lids: Snug-fitting lids direct rising steam away from the center of the cup, ensuring your custards are never watered down or ruined by accidental water pockets.
  • Wide-Mouth 275ml Design: Provides ample room for hearty fillings like large shiitake mushrooms, gingko nuts, and shrimp, or operates as a beautiful standalone server for soups, ice cream, and side dishes.
🧼 Appliance Cooking & Fine Glaze Care Guidelines:

• Hand Wash Recommendation: To maintain the crisp contrast and high-gloss sheen of the elegant blue motifs over years of use, do not wash these cups in a dishwasher. Hand wash gently with warm water, mild liquid dish soap, and a soft, non-scratch sponge.
• Heating Versatility: Fully compatible with microwave ovens, conventional baking ovens, stovetop steaming pots, and bamboo baskets. Never expose the porcelain directly to open gas or electric range flames.
• Thermal Shock Prevention: Avoid transferring cold cups straight from the refrigerator directly into a hot active steamer or preheated oven. Let the porcelain transition closer to room temperature first to protect the glaze layer.
