Benihana Bride Mug
in 2 collections
This white mug was manufactured for Benihana restaurants. The mug is shaped like a young woman wearing traditional bridal headgear, the white tsunokakushi, which is a wide, white headdress or hood which covers her elaborate wig or hairstyle. Tsuno means "horns" and the headpiece represents a covering of any "horns of jealousy" a bride might have, so that she may enter her new home with openness and obedience.
