Oriental Artisan Edo Kiriko Whisky Glasses

Edo Kiriko is a traditional Japanese glass-cutting technique that dates back to the 19th century. It involves meticulously hand-cutting intricate geometric patterns into glass, creating a distinctive interplay of light and texture that is highly prized for its craftsmanship.

The amber hue is an integral part of the glass composition, not a surface coating. This ensures the color will not fade, chip, or wear off over time, maintaining its depth and clarity through years of use.

We recommend hand-washing these glasses with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using the dishwasher, as the high heat and abrasive detergents can dull the crystal's finish and potentially damage the delicate hand-cut edges over time.

These glasses are designed with a weighted base to provide a balanced, substantial feel in the hand. They are crafted to feel solid and premium, which enhances the experience of sipping fine spirits.

Yes, the included wooden presentation box is designed specifically to protect the glasses. It provides a secure, cushioned environment that keeps them safe from dust and accidental breakage when they are not in use.

While lead-free crystal is more durable and environmentally friendly than traditional leaded glass, it is still a delicate material. It is perfectly suitable for regular use, but you should handle it with the same care you would any fine glassware to prevent chipping.
