Know before you buy
The Usurai series is defined by its ultra-thin, delicate profile that feels surprisingly light in the hand, yet it utilizes Toyo Sasaki's proprietary HS (Hard Strong) technology. This process reinforces the glass, making it significantly more resistant to breakage and chipping than standard thin-walled tumblers.
Yes, thanks to the reinforced HS construction, this glass is designed to withstand the rigors of commercial dishwashers, making it perfectly suitable for both professional food service environments and daily home use.
While 19 ounces is a generous size, the glass has a diameter of 2.875 inches, which provides a comfortable, secure grip for most hand sizes. Its tall, slender silhouette balances the volume, ensuring it doesn't feel overly bulky.
This glass is primarily designed for cold beverages like water, iced tea, or cocktails. While it is durable, it is not specifically tempered for boiling liquids, so it is best to avoid using it for hot coffee or tea to prevent thermal shock.
Every piece in the Usurai series is meticulously crafted in Japan by skilled artisans who specialize in high-quality glassware.
