Striking beauty
This beautiful glass is like a tranquil lakeside scene captured within.
The gradient, shifting from clear blue to deep violet, evokes the beauty of that moment when the boundary between the evening sky and the lake surface melts together.
The bubbles scattered within the glass are like the shimmering surface of water, catching the light.
When you pour a drink into it, the colors gain even more depth, showing various expressions depending on the lighting and the angle from which you view it.
This glass transforms your everyday drink into a more special occasion.
It is about 10cm tall.
It is a convenient size for highballs with plenty of ice, shochu with water, and soda water.
The constricted center allows it to fit comfortably in the hand, making it not only beautiful to look at but also easy to hold.
Enjoy a peaceful time at the end of the day as the ice clinks in your glass.

"The various color combinations and bubble patterns are only possible because of the free-blowing process. The glass melted in a small furnace contains tiny air bubbles, and the marks of the tools used to shape it remain as traces, giving it a unique character."
Maki Nakamura of Maki Glass Studio is a Kyoto-based craftsman who creates tableware for everyday use and glass for architectural spaces.
During his high school years, he was impressed by the works of glass object artist Shibuya Ryoji and aspired to become a glass artist, but at the time there were no universities in the Kansai region where one could study glass, so he majored in ceramics in the craft department at university.
Later, just before graduating from university, he learned that there was a glass vocational school in Toyama, and his desire to study glass was rekindled.After graduating from university, he studied glasswork creation at the Toyama Glass Art Institute's Department of Design, and honed his skills at the Toyama Glass Studio.
Nakamura, who entered the world of glass from art, has a thorough understanding of the material, and his works express the beauty of freshness and softness by making the most of it, while also providing comfort to the user as tableware, and the well-thought-out shapes are also excellent.
Nakamura's glass works add a touch of elegance to your dining table, even adding a touch of color to the shadows.
Please hold it up to the light and enjoy it.
