Edo glass, developed in Tokyo, brings another kind of beauty: the clarity and subtle variations of glass shaped by hand. One invites us to look at a painted surface; the other lets us look through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased in Nomi, Ishikawa, Seihodo brings these two traditions together in its Kutani Wa Glass collection. A hand-painted porcelain base supports a hand-blown glass bowl, joining two materials with very different textures and ways of catching the light. It is a way of enjoying Japanese ceramics through a familiar object that can find a place at many different tables.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Usubeni palette gives the floral base a soft pink character. Against the clear glass above, the painted surface becomes a small point of colour among the dishes on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReiwa Kinhanazume revisits a floral painting style that emerged in Kutani ware in 1913. In this softer interpretation, decoration becomes a detail to live with every day, suited to a simple setting as well as a more carefully arranged meal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePour a little chilled sake and set a small dish beside it. The glass leaves room for the drink’s appearance and the porcelain adds another detail to the table. Taking time to look, lift and sip can become a modest ritual, giving an everyday evening a more attentive pace.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seihodo","offers":[{"title":"Diameter 52mm × Height 110mm \/ 70ml","offer_id":48289637826731,"sku":null,"price":172.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8843\/7419\/files\/IMG_6219_754a0b14-32e0-4844-ad61-e0602fe9d4e0.jpg?v=1793608118","url":"https:\/\/rakudajapan.com\/en-au\/products\/sake-glass-reiwa-kinkazume-sky-blue","provider":"RAKUDA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
