Description

This guinomi sake cup features an attractive windmill-like design at its base in a stylish black color. The sides are adorned with two detailed patterns for a visually engaging experience.

It is entirely handcrafted by the traditional craftsman, Kiyohide. The chic black hue of the Edo Kiriko cut glass complements the design, evoking a sense of modernity and individuality within the tradition.

Despite the intricate appearance of cutting work, the process is brought to completion by fluid and smooth motions, honed over decades of training. The meticulous patterns change expressions with lighting, emanating a delicate glow that captivates the viewer, whether under natural light or when illuminated in darkness.

The surface's texture ensures that the glass doesn't easily slip from your grasp, and the round form, combined with the moderate weight, makes it ergonomic.

Made of glass for a smooth drinking experience, it is perfect for slowly savoring chilled sake. This piece embodies the chic and pleasant sake time unique to Edo Kiriko.

    Guinomi

    Guinomi are a type of sake cup. They are typically smaller than a Japanese teacup, and on the somewhat larger size for a sake cup. They are often used without a sake carafe, with sake poured directly from the bottle.

    Originally guinomi were used to hold delicacies during Japanese tea ceremonies. At some point, people started to use them to pour and drink sake after enjoying the delicacies. This is believed to be the origin of guinomi. They therefore evolved over time alongside Japan’s tea culture.
