- This sake cup is made by metalwork artist Koto Miyata in Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture. She uses a technique called "forging," in which metal is beaten out of a copper plate. This is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process in which the metal is heated with a burner and struck repeatedly to deform it.
- Copper has a high thermal conductivity, so when cold sake is added to the sake cup, the entire cup cools down and the sake tastes better. Also, when the sake is warmed to lukewarm, it stays warmer in the hand for a longer period of time.
- The sparkling colored foil scattered on the bottom of the sake cup catches the eye when tasting the sake and makes the drinking time even more special. This item is recommended as a gift for women who love sake.
- The urethane coating allows you to enjoy the copper color and color foil without worrying about changes over time.
- Care Instructions: Can be cleaned with dish detergent. Do not wash in a dishwasher or dryer, or scrub with a coarse sponge. Do not wash with strong chemicals.
