Description

This fascinating piece of golden glass is adorned with a beautiful miniature painting of a koi fish on the aureate base. In Japanese culture, koi fish symbolize happiness and good fortune.

This glass sake cup is coated with transparent lacquer, and its uneven brushed layer produces a lavish and varied reflection of gold, accentuating the auspicious imagery of the koi fish at the base. The glass sake cup is delicate and lightweight with exceptional transparency, allowing the sake's texture to be beautifully showcased.

The painting of the koi fish is dynamic but depicts a life-like image with the fine lines of the fins. The curved body of the koi shows the elegance of fish in Japanese garden ponds. The koi fish at the bottom is hand-painted and protected by a glass layer, so you can cherish its design without worrying about scratches.
