Gustatory cups 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.

I want people to choose a glass to match what they drink or eat. The sake cups were created with this in mind, and are a charming gem that will add a stylish and colorful touch to your dining table.

Among fine tableware, glassware is an easy-to-use item that can be easily incorporated into daily life. Why not welcome a traditional handcrafted sake cup as your favorite tableware?

A typical faceted "yarai" design

The faceted design is created by cutting the glass. This sake cup was made in the image of yarai, one of the representative faceted glass 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 varies depending on the depth of the cut, which is a profound point. The design of countless straight lines intersecting each other gives a stylish impression. In addition, the round cut near the bottom of the piece creates gentle shadows. This sake cup is recommended for those who want to enjoy the simple beauty of faceted glass.

A special sake cup to be used on special occasions

The sake cups are paired in red and blue. Both have a beautiful shine of their own. The deep colors are full of a sense of luxury, and we recommend using them when entertaining guests. The prestigious quality of the tableware can also be used for special occasions such as New Year's Day.

You will want to use it for a leisurely evening of drinking with food and precious time spent with your loved ones.

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