Purchased at the Mariage Frères store in Kobe. The retail price was 13,200 yen. I was so happy to buy it at the tea shop I'd always admired that I opened the box and looked at it, but I treasured it too much and never used it, so I'm offering it for sale. The logo on the teacup is on two sides, so it faces forward whether you hold the handle with your right or left hand, making it a design that's friendly to left-handers.
