Originally designed for gin, this versatile glass is perfect for shots or as an elegant sipping vessel for dessert liquors and similar drinks. Its refined shape enhances the tasting experience, making it ideal for enjoying both strong and sweet spirits with sophistication.
These handblown glasses, designed by Osamu Saruyama and meticulously crafted by master artisans, embody the harmony between craftsmanship and nature. Made from a newly developed glass composition, each piece reveals a unique texture, as if the cup itself were shaped by the very flow of water. The free-blowing technique employed ensures ultimate clarity, while the glass surface remains exquisitely smooth with an alluringly uneven finish.
The subtle distortions and air bubbles inherent in this technique add to the glass's character, creating a presence that cannot be replicated by mold-blown pieces. These imperfections offer a sense of individuality, making each glass a singular work of art. The delicate horizontal lines etched into the surface create a stunning play of light, casting surreal shadows when bathed in sunlight.
No two glasses are identical—each is a one-of-a-kind creation, with slight variations in size and shape, making them not only functional vessels but also extraordinary pieces of artistic expression.
Care Instructions:
To preserve the glass's smooth surface and maintain its clarity, hand washing is highly recommended, as dishwashers may cause scratches and reduce transparency over time.
