Description

Experience History with A Sip of Coffee

Introducing our exquisite Espresso Cup – a beautiful blend of traditional Korean artistry and modern design sensibility. Inspired by the royal heritage of Korea, this espresso cup is the perfect size for your morning shot of caffeine, smaller than a standard coffee cup, yet grand in its tales.

Unfolding the Tale of King Yeongjo’s Royal Wedding

The design on this espresso cup is derived from the ‘Oegyujanggak Uigwe’, a historical document recording significant national events of Korea. It depicts the grandeur of King Yeongjo’s royal wedding in 1795, where he welcomed the 15-year-old Queen Jeongsun as his second wife. The detailed imagery on the cup unfolds the story of the royal procession carrying Queen Jeongsun to the palace, involving 379 horses and 1,299 people, spread across 50 pages of the Uigwe.

Uniquely Crafted with a Touch of Luxury

This espresso cup is not just a coffee vessel, it’s a piece of art. Reimagined in a modern design, it features a unique shape that cannot be found anywhere else. The pearl-colored background represents the elegance of Korean art, while the hand-painted gold edges on the porcelain add a touch of luxury and exclusivity.

Specifications

The espresso cup measures 9*8.5cm and has a capacity of 110ml. It comes in a beautifully designed box sized 29*16*9cm, perfect for gifting and safe storage.

Quality Craftsmanship

The espresso cup is made from premium porcelain/ceramic, manufactured in the Republic of Korea. It is fired three times at a temperature of 1250℃, resulting in a product that’s incredibly durable and robust, worthy of its royal inspiration. Own this piece of Korean history and let your coffee moments be infused with the grandeur of the past. Enjoy the luxury, the story, and the craftsmanship with every sip from this unique espresso cup.

  1. Evi – Utrecht, Nederland –

    Het is een mooie espresso kop. De geschiedenis achter het ontwerp is fascinerend. Perfect formaat voor mijn ochtendkoffie. Ontvangst was snel, goed verpakt.

  2. Wren from Nashville, USA –

    Really cute cup for espresso. Looks cool and feels sturdy. Good size too, not huge like regular cups. Makes coffee more fun to drink.

  3. Mason from Los Angeles, USA –

    This espresso cup is nice, but pretty small. I like the design, it feels unique. It holds just one shot of coffee though. Not really sure if it’s worth buying again.

  4. Zeynep – Izmir, Türkiye –

    Çok güzel bir fincan, kahvemi içerken farklı hissettiriyor. Tasarımı çok dikkat çekici. Çok beğendim, kesinlikle tekrar alırım.

    Leuke kopje voor espresso. Het is klein, maar ziet er goed uit en drinkt fijn. Perfecte aankoop.

  6. نوال الحارث from الرباط، المغرب –

    يُعتبر فنجان الإسبريسو هذا من الروائع التراثية. يصور الزفاف الملكي بأسلوب يدعو للدهشة، يُعزز تجربة القهوة بسحرٍ تاريخي.

  7. Liam from Edinburgh, Scotland –

    Beautiful craftsmanship! The historical design adds a unique charm to my coffee breaks.
