Cup - Heuge - Setoguro
CHIPS Heuge Setoguro cup, made in Hasami, Φ70 × H80 mm. Its deep, glossy jet-black glaze is characteristic of Setoguro pottery, enhanced by modern glazing techniques for an opaque and intense finish.
TASSE HEUGE SETOGURO
Pottery from the Momoyama period is also known as "Hikidashi Kuro" (black drawer) or "Tensho Kuro" (black Tensho) due to the firing method and the era in which it was fired. One of its features is its glossy, deep jet-black glaze, so opaque that the color of the base material is not visible.
To create Setoguro tableware that can be widely used on the modern dining table, we used modern glaze blends and techniques rather than the same methods as in the past to achieve a glossy, truly jet-black color. Enjoy the contrast between the unique black-on-black tableware and colorful ingredients.
This long, slender tea cup has been appreciated by the Japanese for a long time and can be casually used as a small cup. This simple yet tasteful tea cup will surely become an essential item on your dining table.

Born in Mino, made for everyday use
CHIPS shapes its tableware in the Mino region of Japan, one of the great cradles of Japanese ceramics. Paired glazes, simple shapes, stackable mugs: tableware designed for rushed breakfasts as well as long gatherings, and meant to be mixed without ever clashing.
CHIPS EXPERTISE
What makes this tableware unique
Mino, land of ceramics
The region has been producing pottery for centuries. CHIPS sources its clays and kilns there.
Getting started first
Shapes designed to fit comfortably in hand and lift effortlessly, even in large sizes.
Living glazes
Depending on the kiln and firing, the shades vary slightly from one piece to another. That’s the beauty of Mino ceramics.
The Mismatched Game
The colors are designed to blend: each table creates its own palette.
Stackable, from the cupboard to the table
Stackable mugs and bowls save space without sacrificing style.
Heritage, without the museum
CHIPS borrows from Mino traditions, like the mysterious green of Oribe, and brings them into everyday life.
