This stemmed highball glass features a sturdy, thick stem that provides a sense of durability, ensuring it is easy to handle without the fragility often associated with finer glassware. Perfect for casual use, it’s ideal for serving highball, water, freshly squeezed juice, or a relaxed cocktail in the evening. Its practical design combines everyday functionality with an understated elegance, making it a versatile addition to any table setting.
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.
