Blue Flower Petals Guinomi Sake Cup

The guinomi sake cup boasts a design reminiscent of a blossoming flower. The center of its base is hexagonal, while the sides are adorned with a chrysanthemum-linked pattern.

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

Despite the intricate appearance of cutting work, the process is brought to completion by the his 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.
