Simple and refined, this glass sakazuki sake cup is a modern take on the traditional form. Crafted entirely from clear glass, its balanced silhouette features a sturdy, column-like foot that feels reassuring in the hand and offers a stable hold.
The clarity of the glass catches and reflects light in every direction, especially through the thick base, adding brilliance to each pour. The wide rim allows the aroma of sake to rise gently, while the smooth edge creates a clean, delicate contact that gives joy to the tasting experience.
Refreshing in the heat, quietly luminous in the cold—this sake cup invites you to enjoy sake in its purest form, year-round.

Maker / Brand
Founded in 1899 during Japan’s transformative Meiji era (1868–1912 CE), Hirota Glass stands as one of Tokyo’s oldest glassmakers. With over a century of expertise, the company preserves the delicate techniques of Edo glass and Edo Kiriko while reimagining classic styles. From soft Taisho-era (1912–1926 CE) curves to modern reinterpretations, each piece embodies a dedication to beauty, function, and traditional Japanese charm.
Crafts
Tokyo, the capital of Japan, is also a hub of craftsmanship. Among its many traditions, Edo Glass and Edo Kiriko are types of glassware that have been passed down for around 200 years in Edo—the former name for central Tokyo.
Their luminous surfaces echo centuries of craftsmanship, born in what was once Edo and still thriving in modern Tokyo.

Sakazuki
We have curated a collection of exquisite sakazuki sake cups from all over Japan, designed to enrich the blissful experience of savoring your favorite sake. The term "sakazuki" refers to any sake cup, though it traditionally describes a flat, plate-like vessel, representing the oldest style. Holding the cup delicately with both hands—grasping its sides and bottom—embodies the essence of Japanese sake culture.
Sakazuki cups typically contain just a few sips, and the beautifully adorned ones are treasured by collectors for their aesthetic appeal. Using a stunning sakazuki for a special sake, a celebratory occasion, or when hosting guests, will create an unforgettable moment.
