Know before you buy
Each glass is handcrafted by master artisans in Japan using a technique that fuses two layers of glass. This process creates a distinct tactile texture and a subtle double-wall effect that provides a substantial, high-quality weight in your hand.
While the glass features a double-wall construction, it is designed primarily for cold beverages and everyday use. We recommend avoiding extreme temperature shocks, and it should not be used in the microwave.
To preserve the clarity and finish of the handcrafted glass, we recommend handwashing only. It is not dishwasher safe, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the glass over time.
Yes, the dual-layer construction provides a level of insulation that helps maintain the temperature of your drink and reduces condensation on the exterior of the glass compared to standard single-wall tumblers.
The glass stands 5.75 inches tall with a diameter of 2.75 inches. It holds 9.5 ounces, making it a versatile size for water, iced tea, or cocktails.
