Item Details
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
This is a mug made of Japanese zelkova wood, born from two traditional techniques that Kaga is proud of: Yamanaka-nuri (Yamanaka lacquerware), which has a 400-year history, and Kaga's "armor braid" used for tailoring armor. This mug is made of Japanese zelkova, a material born from two traditional techniques that Kaga is proud of.

The beauty of the grain and rings of the wood produced by Yamanaka-nuri's unique vertical wood-turning method is attractive. The mug is also robust and resistant to distortion due to drying even after years of use, and can be used as "camping gear for a lifetime.

The drinking cups are carefully finished by craftsmen one by one to make the mouth as thin as 1.5 to 3 mm, which makes sake and coffee more delicious and superb to the palate!

The drinking cups are not only sophisticated in appearance, but also sturdy and delicious.

The egg-shaped form, with a wide center and a thin finish at the mouth, slows down the flow of water and allows you to enjoy a wide range of flavors such as sweetness, acidity, and richness in a well-balanced manner.

The black and gold custom-made armor braided cord is an adjustable length adjuster belt. The black and gold braided cord is adjustable and fits snugly in your hand, allowing you to feel the warmth and texture of the wood. Also, the custom-made armor braid uses a total angle (agemaki) knot. This is an auspicious knot used as a talisman to protect the unprotected back and hold the cord of life together.
