12 months cold sake cup - January "Nanten"
The January sake cup depicts a beautiful Nanten tree with bright red berries.
This Nanten cup is recommended for drinking sake in the first month of the year to wish for a safe and happy new year.
Nanten has long been said to "turn the tide of adversity," in other words, to protect us from bad things.
For this reason, Nanten has often been planted at the devil's gate of a house.
Vivid Nanten berries are painted with color lacquer and gold leaf.
The contrasting colors of the berries and leaves create a beautiful design.
Lacquerware sake cup is especially popular among those who like to drink, as it is pleasant to the palate and offers a different taste from other vessels.
It is also enjoyed as a vessel for sweets and dishes, or as a New Year's decoration.
This sake cup is also a popular birthday gift for people born in January.
A discerning cold sake cup carved from one piece of wood
The handle of the 12 months cold sake cup is characterized by its very thin, straight, and uniform appearance.
Many people think that these handles are glued on afterwards, but in fact, they are carved from a single piece of wood.
As you can see in the photo, you can see how the wood base is shaved in the order of 1, 2, 3, and 4.
Although most of the wood base is shaved off, it is kept strong as one piece.
The delicate and beautiful handle of this chilled sake cup is the result of skilled workmanship.
We hope you will enjoy the beauty of the design and the quality of the handiwork.
We have prepared a special gift box.
While keeping the sake cup firmly in place, we have made an effort to make the beautiful seasonal design visible as soon as the box is opened.
A special gift box for 2 cups is also available.
We also have a gift box for 2 cups, which is popular gift for couples.
* If you wish to have the box, please purchase 2 sake cups and write [set of 2 box request] in the remarks column.
