This raden-inlaid lacquer sake cup is crafted by KOKEN MURATA, a contemporary Japanese lacquer artist. This version features a red exterior with a black interior, is offered in the Medium size, and is presented without a box.
As the cup is raised to the mouth, the rhodium inlay at the base shimmers like stars floating in space, drawing the eye inward and creating an immersive drinking experience. The exterior's vibrant red hue conveys an auspicious and celebratory sentiment, while the black interior serves to accentuate the depth and radiance of the mother-of-pearl inlay.
The medium size offers a well-balanced capacity, suitable for both everyday enjoyment and relaxed moments of savoring sake. This refined yet approachable expression of modern urushi craftsmanship is sure to impress.
