This sake cup is part of the Yachiyo kiln's Edo glass work, made in the historic Shimousa region of Japan. A craftsman wraps thin rods of colored glass and gold leaf around clear glass, then shapes the piece by blowing it by hand, giving it a glossy, refined finish.

The cup shows a deep, rich color together with the luxurious look of gold leaf, and carries the warmth of a handmade piece that becomes more appealing the more it is used. The glassmaking method follows Edo glass techniques recognized as a national traditional craft, designated by Japan's Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.

This Plum Purple cup measures 6.8 x 6.8 x 6 cm (2.7 x 2.7 x 2.4 in), holds 115 ml (3.9 fl oz), and weighs 125 g (4.4 oz). It comes in a dedicated gift box, making it a nice gift for someone special. Because each piece is handmade, slight differences in shape, weight, capacity, and color may occur.
