Tin Sake Cup Set with Tokkuri

A set of sake cups and tokkuri, flask expertly crafted from pure tin in Toyama Prefecture.

£320 per item

This set comprising a pure tin tokkuri, sake flask, and sake cups is made in Takaoka City, Toyama Prefecture – an area renowned throughout Japan for its metal-casting industry. Said to remove bitterness from sake, tin is particularly suitable for drinks with high acidity making them taste softer on the palate. This set was crafted using an advanced technique known as ‘sand-casting’ where molten metal is poured into an intricately designed sand-mould, and then hand-finished by expert craftspeople using a lathe and various bladed tools.
