Know before you buy
Edo Kiriko is a traditional Japanese glass-cutting technique that dates back to the 19th century. It involves hand-cutting intricate geometric patterns into colored glass layers to create a distinct, tactile texture and high-contrast visual effect.
The color is not painted; it is an integral part of the glass. The piece is crafted using a layered glass technique where a colored layer is fused to a clear base, then carefully cut away by the artisan to reveal the clear crystal underneath.
To preserve the clarity and hand-cut edges, we recommend hand-washing the glass with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high heat and abrasive detergents can dull the crystal's finish over time.
Yes, this glass is crafted from premium, lead-free crystal. It offers the same brilliance and clarity as traditional lead crystal while being a safer, more modern alternative for daily use.
Yes, each glass arrives in a custom-fitted wooden box. This provides a secure way to store the piece when not in use and makes it ready for gifting.
