Description

Popular as gifts, these sake cups give a feeling of warmth and luxury. Due to the round-bottom design, they gracefully swing around on your table! The cups can be used as sake cups, desert cups, accessories keepers and decoration items. For the extraordinary Gold Leaf collection, Nousaku has worked together with traditional gold craftsmen representing the Kanazawa region in the center of Japan. The inner side of the cups are gilded with gold leaf, giving them a unique, high class look that will shine and change with the reflection of light upon it.

Dimensions:
Mini cup: H37　φ57
Small: H45　φ66
Large: H55　φ80

They 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.

Recommended care:

– 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.
