Description

Japanese Takaoka Casting in collaboration with an original French design! For anyone wishing to add a touch of glamour to their table, this 100% Tin glass has a floral motif and combines Japanese material with French aesthetics. Tin is antibacterial, does not rust and is known for producing an even better taste to your liquor as it removes some of the bitterness. It is said that water stored in tin does not spoil as it absorbs impurities and purifies your beverage.

The cups are made with 100% tin. Known as the most expensive metal after gold and silver, tin is very malleable and flexible. Though having nearly the whiteness of silver, it does not rust easily nor will air tarnish it readily. It is significantly antibacterial, and also known as a material with low allergic reactivity and high heat conductivity. Tin ware cooled in a refrigerator for 2-3 minutes will keep the dish fresh and cold. It is common to add other metallic materials to provide durability and facilitate cutting work, but NOUSAKU uses tin without such additives. Accumulated experience of skilled craftsmen enables us to produce these unique pieces.

< NOUSAKU - Contemporary Japanese Metal Craft >

Their tableware, sakeware and home decorations are made of brass, bronze and 100% tin.

Recommended care for TIN items:
- Wash with a mild detergent using a soft sponge.
- Polish with a common metal polisher, tooth paste, or pasty baking soda to restore the shine.
- Avoid any abrasive materials, wire wool or brushes, as they may scratch the surface.
- Do not put over fire or use in microwaves, as the melting point is low.
- Refrain from storing in the refrigerator > 30 minutes or in the freezer to avoid deterioration of the material.
- Not suitable for use in dishwashing or drying machines.
- Excessive bending and changing shapes may lead to cracks and breakage of the item.
(For items with gold leaf:)
- Do not change the shape or leave an item in water, and be sure to dry it well after use, as gold leaf may flake off.
