Description

This sakazuki sake cup is relatively large and has a shallow shape. The gorgeous chrysanthemum pattern and vermilion color are beautiful and perfect for drinking sake at festive occasions. When sake is poured, the painting becomes even more beautiful with its glossy reflection.

It comes with a stand, so you can display it when you are not using it, making it a wonderful interior decorative item.

Aizu-e, the traditional design of Aizu lacquerware, is hand-painted one by one by skilled maki-e artists. The painting of the chrysanthemum flower is considered as auspicious motif in Japan, warding off disease and bringing longevity.

The decoration is done by hand, using brushes and cotton buds for painting, so each piece is finished differently. This is the reason why some of the gold paintings are blurred and some paints are pooled, but we hope you enjoy it as the charm of handmade products.

Maker / Brand / Series

Fukunishi-Sobe Shoten was started by taking over the lacquerware division from the main family, which had been in existence for 13 generations since the early Edo period. They have developed their products over time by figuring out "what must not be changed and what must be changed". In addition to the lacquering technique that makes the most of the moist luster of lacquerware, the company has handed down the unique decorative techniques of Aizu, such as Aizu-e painting with motifs of pine, bamboo, plum, and ceremonial arrow, and the spinning wheel. Fukunishi Sobe's lacquerware flexibly incorporates modern industrial technology, and is a special product that has a high artistic value as well as an aspect of being daily use items with which long-time use gives an additional charm.
