General Description

Japan is well-known for its stunningly beautiful lacquerware; in fact, the word "japanware" is a synonym of lacquerware. Around the middle of the 19th century, Japanese artisans began combining the country's traditional skill in lacquerware with the subtle beauty of pewter. Today this exquisite combination is carried on in the phenomenally attractive and refined tumblers offered here: tumblers featuring painted lacquer over a pewter base.

Pewter tumblers are ideal for serving both warm drinks (think "sake") and cold (think "beer"). They are also perfect for serving wine, with the distinctive beauty of the tumbler adding to the pure enjoyment of the wine.

These exquisite tumblers are available in a choice of five colors. They may be ordered individually or as a set mixing the colors of your choice, in which case, place each selection of color in the shopping cart individually. Each tumbler comes packed in its own handcrafted box of paulownia wood (kiri), making it ideal for use as a gift that will surely be treasured. HAND MADE IN JAPAN
