A delightful expression of traditional Wajima lacquerware, this sake cup by Taya Shikkiten features a meticulously detailed pufferfish swimming through black lacquer. Crafted using the maki-e technique, the artisan applies precious metal powders to depict the fish's round form and fine texture, capturing a sense of gentle buoyancy as it floats mid-swirl. Subtle gold lines suggest the water’s movement, animating the design with grace.
The glossy black interior serves as a dramatic stage, enhancing the glimmer of each gilded detail. When filled, the sake reflects and dances across the illustration, making every pour an engaging moment of discovery.
Handcrafted in Wajima—a region known for centuries of lacquerware excellence—this cup is both a celebration of nature and a showcase of artisan mastery. Whether for a special occasion or a personal indulgence, it adds a playful yet sophisticated touch to the drinking experience.
