Teapot and Lidded Cup Set by Tachikichi
Tachikichi is a Kyoto premier tableware and ceramics brand founded in 1752
Initially named Tachibana-ya Kichibee, in 1894 this was changed to Tachikichi by the 8th generation owner
It has since been hand-crafting original tableware, utensils and luxury gifts in workshops located in Japan’s best-known ceramics regions
This delicate porcelain set has been hand-painted with an Amime (netting) design in cobalt blue
Based on fishermen casting their nets, this pattern symbolizes gathering in good fortune and prosperity
The unbroken sequence of mesh also represents enduring relationships and long-lasting happiness
The net motif can be traced back to Jomon period (c. 14,000–300 BCE) earthenware, when rope was used to imprint patterns into clay
By the Edo period (1603-1868), it had become widely popular and appeared on kimono and ceramics
This design is discontinued by the brand and a rare find
Marked “Tachikichi” on inside of teapot lid and base of the cups
