Three Rabbits Under the Full Moon Yunomi – Tsukimi Japanese Teacup

This charming Japanese yunomi teacup features three rabbits joyfully leaping beneath a glowing full moon, creating a playful and poetic autumn scene inspired by the Japanese tradition of Tsukimi (moon viewing).

In Japan, rabbits have long been associated with the moon. Traditional folklore imagines a rabbit living on the moon and pounding mochi, making the rabbit and full moon a beloved motif for Jugoya (十五夜) and autumn moon-viewing celebrations.

The three lively rabbits beneath the full moon bring a sense of movement and joy to the design, making this yunomi especially delightful for Tsukimi gatherings, autumn tea time, or as a seasonal Japanese gift.

A charming piece for enjoying Japanese green tea while celebrating the beauty of the autumn moon.
