Gagyu Kiln Japanese Whisky Glass - Wave Hakeme Brushwork

Sale price¥16,900

A whisky glass striking for the calm, composed appearance that is characteristic of Gagyu.

Namibake — Waves of Hakeme
On the dark brown clay, milky-white namibake (wave-like hakeme brush-strokes) are drawn in flowing lines.

A Shape for Aroma and Flavour
Rising from a sturdy base, the glass opens out towards the rim — a shape well suited to those who enjoy both a generous measure and the aroma and flavour of their drink.

Scenes from the Craftsman’s Brush
Imagine the many scenes that come from the tip of the craftsman’s brush as each line is drawn. Choosing two as a pair to give to a married couple would also be a delightful idea.

Why a Paulownia Box
Paulownia wood is light, resists moisture and insects, and moves with changes in humidity — which is why it has been used in Japan for centuries to store what is valuable. A piece delivered in a paulownia box arrives ready to give, and the box itself is part of the gift.

Gagyu Yokoishi

The 15th-generation Gagyu Yokoishi (Gagyu Kiln) is the only kiln that preserves the tradition of hakeme brushwork. The kiln was founded in 1602. Following Nonomura Ninsei, regarded as the founder of Kyoto ware, it became so widely known that it was called the "Ninsei of Kyushu." Designated an Intangible Cultural Property of Nagasaki Prefecture, the kiln creates works that harmonize earthy forms with delicate ornamentation, vessels that fit naturally into contemporary life.
