{"product_id":"japanese-restaurant-yunomi-with-utamaro-beauty-print","title":"Japanese Restaurant Yunomi with Utamaro Beauty Print","description":"\u003cp\u003eA tall, straight-sided yunomi (Japanese teacup) in a soft cream glaze, printed with a classic ukiyo-e portrait of an Edo-period beauty. She has an elaborate black chignon pinned with long golden kanzashi hairpins, wears a peach-and-coral patterned kimono, and holds a book with a red title slip. The picture is signed 歌麿筆 (\"painted by Utamaro\"), so it is a reproduction of a work by the woodblock master Kitagawa Utamaro. On the other side, bold black text reads 割烹 仕出し 魚六 (\"Kappō · Catering · Uoroku\"), with a crest and a telephone number. That tells us it was made as a gift or house cup for a Japanese restaurant called Uoroku. It's a lovely size for green tea. The print is bright and clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUtamaro (c. 1753–1806) is the artist most associated with pictures of beautiful women. He made his name with bijin ōkubi-e, \"large-head\" close-up portraits that showed women's faces and expressions in a new, intimate way. On the restaurant side, \u003cem\u003ekappō\u003c\/em\u003e combines characters meaning \"to cut\" and \"to cook\", and it describes a style of Japanese dining where the chef prepares dishes in front of you. \u003cem\u003eShidashi\u003c\/em\u003e means meals delivered to homes and events, so Uoroku did both.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68135939965141,"sku":null,"price":2750.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0739\/6006\/3189\/files\/vh-dscf3017.jpg?v=1794136050","url":"https:\/\/smallthings.in\/products\/japanese-restaurant-yunomi-with-utamaro-beauty-print","provider":"Small Things","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
