Kiriko Whiskey Glass Edo Kohaku Sakura Chrysanthemum Hand-Cut Crystal | Red Grey Japanese Glassware
Kiriko Whisky Glass – Edo Kohaku Sakura Chrysanthemum Hand-Cut Crystal
Where timeless elegance meets the symbolic beauty of sakura — the Edo Kiriko Kohaku Sakura Whisky Glass Collection reimagines the traditional pairing of red and grey through two striking hand-cut crystal designs. Each glass evokes blooming cherry petals under falling light, captured forever in the precision of Kiriko artisan craft.
The Story Behind the Pattern
Kohaku — the traditional pairing of crimson and grey — carries deep associations with celebration, harmony, and renewal in Japanese culture. The glass features elaborate kikutsunagi (chrysanthemum-link) cuts, one of Edo Kiriko's most iconic patterns. The repeated geometry creates a shimmering canvas that catches light from every angle, while arching overlay lines carve out petal-like forms in layered brilliance. Between texture and transparency lies a visual depth that rewards close attention — each curve and facet a testament to the artisan's precision and patience.
