Tumbler glass born from the Edo faceting technique

Edo faceting is a glass craft produced in Tokyo from the end of the Edo period to the present. The cutting produced by craftsmen's hands enhances the beauty of the glass.

We want people to choose a glass to match what they drink or eat. These attractive glasses were created with this in mind, and will add a stylish and colorful touch to your dining table.

Among fine tableware, glasses are the easiest to incorporate into daily life and are easy to use. Tumbler glasses are the most versatile and are used most frequently. Why not welcome a glassware made by traditional handcrafts as a special tableware?

Glass Features 2

A typical faceted "yarai" design

The faceted pattern is created by cutting the glass. This tumbler glass was made in the image of yarai, one of the representative faceted patterns.

Yarai is an enclosure made of crossed bamboos, which can be seen in machiya (townhouses). It is a traditional design that is said to have the meaning of protection from the outside world and to ward off evil spirits and misfortune.

Even with the same straight lines, the expression of the lines expressed by the depth of the cut is different, which is a profound point. The design of countless straight lines crossing each other gives a stylish impression, and is recommended for those who want to enjoy the simple beauty of faceted glass.

A pair of glasses to use for a special occasion

The glasses come in two color pairs, red and blue. Both have a beautiful shine of their own. You will want to use them for a couple's evening drinks or for precious moments spent with loved ones.

The deep colors are also full of a sense of luxury, so we recommend using it when entertaining guests. The prestigious quality of the tableware can also be used for special occasions such as New Year's Day.

At first glance, faceted glass may seem difficult to coordinate with a table, but the transparency and brilliance of the glass make it a powerful ally that adds a touch of glamour to any occasion.

Small tumbler for use at the dinner table

A tumbler is a glass, so called a cup, that can be used for any purpose, including alcohol, water, tea, and juice. It is the most commonly used type of glass in everyday life.

This glass measures approximately 7.5 cm in diameter and 10.6 cm in height, and features a thick, solid glass bottom for a high sense of stability. The back of the glass is also cut, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful shine of the glass as you sip your drink.

With a capacity of 200 ml, it is not too large and fits comfortably in the hand. It is recommended not only for beer, but also for a leisurely cold sake or other beverages. The small size makes it easy to use and more versatile.
