Black Star and Sword Whiskey Glass

Introducing an exquisite whiskey glass, a bold embodiment of craftsmanship and tradition in a striking black hue. Featuring an intricate design of star and sword, this piece is crafted with meticulous skill and unwavering concentration, reflecting the artistry of Edo Kiriko.

The pattern intricately combines the starburst with the sword blade motif, creating a captivating visual narrative of elegance and strength. The precision of each cut line offers a gleam that invites admiration, allowing you to appreciate the luminous effects crafted by skilled hands.

Black is often considered the most challenging hue to carve in Edo Kiriko. The intricacy arises from the method of cutting kiriko glass, which involves inspecting the interior while referencing the pattern etched on the glass's exterior. Unfortunately, this pattern remains invisible when the glass is black. Achieving this delicate balance demands years of expertise, a refined sensibility, and impeccable technique.
