But I think before WW2, good sake are usually consumed cold and aged sake are certainly serve chilled. I guess hot or cold liquid will not effect these cups, since they are Bone China. The thinner one I might worry.

I had a challenging period a few months back, so I stopped everything tea and wine-related online (but did not stop drinking them), and I focused solely on my work and family.
