A beautiful organic-shaped clear glass gaiwan for enjoying the visual appeal of brewing tea leaves.
Torimoto Glass Company was established in 2015 by the husband-and-wife team Yusuke and Yuya Torimoto. They specialize in a rare form of glass that is hand-blown and tempered for heat resistance by combining a special recipe of sand. Most glass teaware is produced from molds and lacks the natural beauty and clarity of Torimoto's pieces. Available in a limited number each year for only a select few stores in Japan on a seasonal basis.
