Description

This "S-line" wine cup is designed based on the smooth flowing movement of wine against a curving surface, creating a beautiful curve that allows the wine to harmonize with the air. Despite its unique shape, the clever design creates a stable balance, so the cup is not just a feast for the eyes, but also easy to use. Together with the decanter of the same line up, the set will make a one-of-a-kind table setting!

The cups are made 100% out of 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.
