This handcrafted free cup from Tsubame Kobo is a testament to the brand’s dedication to craftsmanship.
Made with black clay, the cup features a calming, earthy tone and a texture that fits comfortably in the hand. Its glaze, reminiscent of a star-filled night sky, and its dynamic shape that transitions from a hexagon to a heptagon, capture Tsubame Kobo’s three defining qualities.
Depending on the viewing angle, the glaze subtly shifts, making every moment you spend with it feel more enriching—especially when enjoying a drink.
[Commitment to Black Clay]
Tsubame Kobo uses carefully selected black clay from Mino, Japan.
Though this clay is difficult to work with, it offers a unique warmth and depth of character that other clays cannot match.
When your cup arrives, we invite you to touch the intentionally unglazed areas, left bare so you can appreciate the raw beauty of the clay and the care of the artisans who shaped it. Let it enhance your drinking experience.
[Commitment to Glaze – Milky Way]
The Milky Way glaze evokes a night sky dotted with shimmering stars.
Because the outcome of glaze work can vary with temperature and humidity, each cup is carefully monitored and finished by hand.
Subtle color shifts and delicate variations are the hallmark of a one-of-a-kind piece—your very own personal vessel.
[A Unique Design]
The transformation from a hexagonal (tortoiseshell) base to a heptagonal rim gives this cup a distinct silhouette.
When filled, light refracts and reflects through the angles, creating a brilliant, ever-changing sparkle with every sip—a fleeting, once-in-a-lifetime glow.
The unglazed swallow stamp on the base is symbolic—just like swallows return every year, this cup is meant to be returned to again and again.
“Not just for special occasions, but to create special moments in your everyday life.”
This is the message woven into Tsubame Kobo’s sakeware. We hope it brings a little beauty into your daily rituals.
Packaged in a gift box, this cup makes a thoughtful present—and a perfect treat for yourself.
We proudly recommend it as a standout piece for gift-giving or daily enjoyment.
