Tokkuri / Bamboo forest

Tokkuri is a shape that is very difficult to cut. Normally, you look through your mouth and scrape the glass, but in the case of sake bottles and vases, it is very difficult to look into and cut because the mouth is thin. The design of this product is a simple design consisting of vertical and horizontal. Horizontal cuts look easy, but they're actually quite difficult. In order to put together the vertical lines, I made a horizontal cut at the top to narrow down the design. The rest is a vertical line that continues to the bottom, but as many as 32 vertical lines are cut evenly. As you can see from the video, if this is cut, the design will be simple but very beautiful. You can feel the beauty of the true value especially when you rotate it. I got the impression that the appearance when rotated is Japanese as if it were running in a bamboo grove. You can feel the beauty that exists only in Japan, which is not found overseas. There is no doubt that if you use this sake bottle, you will be paying attention to its beauty. Not only can you use it yourself, but you can also invite people to entertain you, so please use it together with the Gui of our workshop. The Kiriko of our workshop is polished using the traditional method of Edo Kiriko, "hand polishing", which maintains the strength of the glass and finishes it with high quality. On the other hand, there are some things in the world that polish the glass while immersing it in an acid called "acid polishing" and melting the entire glass into pieces. Acid-polished ones have the disadvantages of being easily scratched and the color may fade, but since the man-hours can be reduced and the price can be sold at a low price, sales will improve, so many workshops and writers perform acid-polishing. We are here. Since the cut surface of our workshop is polished one by one, the original strength of the glass is not lost, and you can wash it with a detergent or scrubbing brush. Please note that boiling water, microwave ovens and dishwashers cannot be used like any other glassware. The handling method is explained in detail on the homepage of the workshop.
