Ominaeshi -cold sake cup for 12months

12 months cold sake cup - October "Ominaeshi"

For October, a sake cup depicting "Ominaeshi," which is one of the seven flowers of autumn in Manyoshu (the oldest anthology of Japanese poetry).

The language of this flower is "kindness" and "beauty".
The cute appearance of the many small yellow flowers is in keeping with the traditional design, which has been depicted together with Japanese pampas grass  to remind people of the autumn season.

The flowers are drawn in an unusual yellow lacquer, with eye-catching gold accents.
Dragonflies flying outside the cup are drawn in gold.

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 beautiful decoration.
This sake cup is also a popular birthday gift for people born in October.

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.
