This free glass is handcrafted at the Yachiyo Kiln, known for Edo glass made in the Yachiyo area of Chiba, a region once known as Shimousa Province. An artisan wraps thin colored glass rods and gold leaf around clear glass, then shapes the glass by mouth-blowing it, giving it a glossy finish.

The glass shows the deep color and gold leaf typical of this glassware, along with the warmth of a handmade piece that many owners say they grow fonder of with use. It measures 8.3 x 8.3 x 8.1 cm (3.3 x 3.3 x 3.2 in), weighs 165 g (5.8 oz), and holds 260 ml (8.8 fl oz).

The Yachiyo Kiln continues the techniques of Edo glass, a traditional craft designated by Japan's Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry. It comes in its own gift box, making it a nice choice for a gift. Because each piece is handmade, slight differences in shape, size, weight, capacity, and color are normal.
