Li Bai (701 – 762), also known as Li Po, was a Chinese poet acclaimed from his own day to the present as a genius and a romantic figure who took traditional poetic forms to new heights.
One of Li Bai's best known poems and a good example of his writing is his Drinking Alone by Moonlight (月下獨酌, pinyin: Yuè Xià Dú Zhuó), which has been translated into English by various authors, including this translation, by Arthur Waley:
花間一壺酒。   A cup of wine, under the flowering trees;
獨酌無相親。   I drink alone, for no friend is near.
舉杯邀明月。   Raising my cup I beckon the bright moon,
對影成三人。   For he, with my shadow, will make three men.

The words on the bottle and cups is from the last two setences of above poem. This elegant porcelain sake set decorated by Chinese traditonal painting in colbalt blue color: the mountain, moon and Li Bai on a leaf boat composing a beautiful poetic romantic picture. It is a great servingware for Japanese restaurant , or gifts to any people love Asian culture.
