Sea Mirror Sake Set [海かがん酒器セット(徳利1・ぐい呑2)]
Umikagan is an old Okinawan word for the sea holding the sky. Loose cloud forms over a base of black. Formal enough to set out for guests, easy enough for a weeknight. Hand formed in Itoman, Okinawa.
The set pairs one carafe with two cups, which is how awamori is poured here: you fill for the other person and they fill for you. Sold as a set of three pieces.
Every piece is made by hand, so size, color, pattern and the way the bubbles sit will differ from one to the next. Not heatproof. Keep it out of the dishwasher, the drying cabinet and the freezer.
