Old glasses 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 that matches what they drink and eat. These special glasses were created with this in mind, and are a stylish and colorful addition to your dining table.

Glass is one of the easiest items of tableware to incorporate into daily life. We recommend that you welcome a glass made by traditional handcrafts as a special tableware.

Yarai, a typical faceted glass pattern

The faceted design is created by cutting the glass. This old glass was made in the image of Yarai, one of the typical faceted patterns.

Yarai is an enclosure made of crossed bamboos found in machiya houses. It is a traditional pattern with the meaning of protection from the outside world, and is said to have the connotation of "warding off evil spirits" or "repelling evil spirits.

The design of countless straight lines intersecting 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. Since faceted glasses are also full of a sense of luxury, we recommend using them when entertaining guests.

At first glance, faceted glass may seem difficult to coordinate with tableware, but the great thing is that it is easy to match with both Japanese and Western tableware. The transparency and brilliance of the glass is a powerful ally that adds a touch of glamour to any occasion.
