What Comes in the Kintsugi-Inspired Afternoon Ritual Set?

The Kintsugi-Inspired Afternoon Ritual Set contains one cream-white Mino ware café au lait bowl, one Jet Black 150 mm small glass plate, and one clear textured cold-tea glass. It is a fixed three-piece tableware set for one person's afternoon snack or tea. The gold-line decoration is inspired by kintsugi; the pieces are not repaired vessels and the set does not include repair materials.

Which three pieces are included?

One bowl: a cream-white Mino ware ceramic café au lait bowl, made on a potter's wheel. The individual listing notes subtle variation from piece to piece.
One small plate: the Jet Black version of a 150 mm lacquer glass plate. It is about 15 mm high and 190 g. Urushi lacquer decoration is on the back of the glass, protected by a resin coating.
One cold-tea glass: a clear, textured tumbler measuring about 75 mm across and 57 mm high. Its lacquer decoration is also on the back, beneath a protective coating.

There is exactly one of each piece. It is a single-person set, not a matching pair of place settings. A food photograph may show yogurt, pastry, or tea to suggest use; those food and drinks are not included.

What can you serve with the set?

The bowl can hold a small portion of yogurt, fruit, or another dessert. The 150 mm plate gives a pastry or a few sweets their own place. The glass is meant for cold tea, water, cold sake, or another cold drink. These are examples of a table setting, not claims that a particular recipe or beverage is supplied with the set.

The three pieces have different materials and shapes, so the set looks coordinated without pretending to be a uniform dinner service. The bowl's pale ceramic, the plate's glossy black glass, and the tumbler's clear texture each remain visible at a small table.

Are the gold lines repairs?

No. The gold lines are decorative kintsugi-inspired designs on new tableware. They should not be read as evidence that a broken bowl, plate, or glass was mended. The set is ready to use as tableware and is not a kit for repairing another object.

What about care and packaging?

The individual bowl listing describes it as dishwasher-safe. The plate and glass listings describe dishwasher-safe coatings on their lacquered backs, with a warning to switch to handwashing if that coating is damaged. Check each individual listing before washing rather than assuming every surface has identical care requirements.

The product pages describe packaging for individual pieces. They do not confirm a specific gift box for the combined three-piece bundle. If presentation is important, ask the store what packaging will accompany the set before ordering.
