Product Description
This product is a sake cup made using the traditional Kutani ware technique of "Ginsai". This elegant silver sake cup can be used for stronger alcoholic beverages, adding a touch of luxury to your daily dining table.
Kutani ware, known overseas as a traditional work of art, has transcended the boundaries of craftsmanship since the late Showa era in Japan(1960s-1980s), evolving from a traditional craft to fine art. Among the techniques that developed during this period is the art of "Ginsai". Each pattern, meticulously crafted by hand using silver foil, possesses a beauty so unique that it truly appears as an unparalleled work of art in the world.
In Nomi City, the heartland of the historically rooted Kutani ware, a new kiln named "Soukyuu kiln" opened its doors in 2017, instantly becoming the talk of the town. Embodying the warmth and charm of handmade craftsmanship, they produce a colorful range of pieces, each with its unique character.
These seamlessly blend into modern lifestyles, adding a touch of sophistication to chic, contemporary dining tables in a Japanese modern style.
