The finjan (فنجان) is the quintessential Arabic coffee cup — small, handleless, and designed to cradle in the palm of your hand. Our traditional cups honor centuries of craftsmanship with premium porcelain fired at 1300°C, available in the classic 80ml size used across the Arab world and the slightly more generous 100ml for those who prefer a fuller pour.
Traditional Arabic coffee cups trace their origins to the coffeehouses of 15th-century Yemen and the Bedouin hospitality tents of the Arabian Peninsula. The small size is intentional — gahwa (قهوة) is served in small portions, often three cups at a time, each symbolizing a different aspect of hospitality. The handleless design encourages you to feel the warmth of the coffee through the porcelain, connecting you to the ritual.
Our Classic 80ml cups match the traditional size perfectly — premium porcelain in green, blue, and red that stays true to the authentic finjan form.
