Four Seasons Color Ochoko Sake Cup

These Ochoko sake cups capture the light of the changing seasons, with four colors reminiscent of spring when yellow flowers bloom, summer when green grows, autumn when red colored leaves shine, and winter when the stars twinkle in the midnight blue sky. It is perfect for use as a key feature for the table setting with a seasonal feel.

It can be used not only as an Ochoko sake cup, but also as a teacup for drinking cold tea like Gyokuro green tea, or as a tiny "Mamebachi" bowl. 

It can also be used in combination with this sauce plate from the same series for a more beautiful and high-quality table setting.

This piece is a perfect gift or for home use.

Hirota Glass

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.

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.
