Nousaku Yure Cup L

Description:
Cast from pure tin, and with substantial heft, this large sake cup has a textured surface that rests comfortably in your hand. Chosen for its resistance to oxidation and corrosion, tin’s ionic effect removes bitterness, giving sake a mellow and rich taste. The Yure cup roughly translates to “shaking,” and refers to the wobble this cup achieves. This whimsical feature finds a way to balance out and stand upright on a level surface.

Measurements:
2.9 in W x 2.1 in H

History:
Located in the historical city of Takaoka, Takaoka City in Toyama Prefecture has a 400-year history of metal casting. Utilizing casting techniques handed down from generation to generation, Nousaku was established in 1916 primarily as a producer of Buddhist altar equipment, tea utensils, and flower vases. In recent years, the company has turned its focus to tableware, interior goods, and lighting fixtures, breaking the mold of a traditional industry by making products to complement modern lifestyles.
