This product is a supreme shochu glass from Arita ware, featuring a stunning gold and silver finish both inside and out. The surface is hand-painted with a brush, leaving subtle strokes that give it a rich, artisanal character. It offers a luxurious yet refined look, turning an ordinary drink into a special moment.
Shochu is a traditional Japanese distilled spirit, usually made from rice, barley, or sweet potatoes, known for its clean and smooth taste. While this glass is designed to enhance the flavor of shochu, it is also perfectly suitable for beer, tea, or other beverages. An excellent choice for a special gift or for enjoying a touch of elegance at home.

 Porcelain production started in Japan in the 17th century after kaorin stone was discovered in Arita. From the middle 17th century, large amounts of Arita ceramics, which captivated the European royalty and nobility, were exported to Europe, through the Dutch trading post on Dejima Island in Nagasaki. Augustus the Strong, Elector of Saxony, was so fond of Arita ceramics that he ordered porcelain resembling Arita ceramics to be made in his electorate. In Arita, the tradition and techniques of Arita ceramics have been preserved for over 400 years, while young potters and workshops take on the callenge of producing ambitious new works. |
