Kurikyu Wappa Sake Pitcher & Cup Set

Overview Details Return/Shipping Policy Description: Lightweight, beautiful, and aromatic, the Kurikyu sake pitcher and cup set combines traditional Japanese craft with contemporary design. Winner of the prestigious Japanese Good Design Award, each piece is handcrafted from thinly sliced Japanese cedar wood that is first boiled, then bent, and fixed into place by hand. Versatile for its ability to work for hot and cold, the wood's insulative property will keep your hot sake warm and cold sake cool for long periods of time. The aroma of cedar will compliment the flavor of your sake, adding to its enjoyment with every sip. Refill your sake using the pitcher's larger opening, then hold the handle with your fingers while supporting the body with your other hand. Gently pour each serving from its smaller opening. Variation:There may be variation in the grain of the wood. The piece you receive may not be the exact one displayed here. History: Kurikyu was established in Odate in 1874. I
