Suwari Wooden Cup

The Suwari Cup features a rounded shape perfect for "swirling" your whiskey or wine.

The craftsman repeats the lacquering and polishing process five times to give it a solid and shiny finish. Adding the pattern on the outside by a technique called "Murakumo-Nuri", a process where you apply soot from burning Japanese candles before the lacquer coating completely hardens. Only one craftsman in Yamanaka uses this technique, making each piece precious and unique.
