This handcrafted glass tumbler features a striking design created by applying natural Japanese urushi lacquer to the exterior surface. Produced in Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture, Yakumo-nuri is a traditional craft known for using only 100% domestically sourced natural lacquer, resulting in a rich, deep gloss and exceptional durability.
The design showcases the phases of the moon—full moon, half moon, and crescent moon—expressed as “windows” cut into the lacquered surface. The contrast between the dark lacquer and the luminous glass creates a serene, elegant atmosphere, making this piece perfect for both daily enjoyment and display.
As a lacquerware item, this tumbler should be handled with care. Do not use in a dishwasher or microwave. Hand washing with a soft sponge is recommended to preserve its beauty.
A unique fusion of glass and urushi, this piece embodies refined Japanese craftsmanship.
