*The price shown is for one item.

A straight, cylindrical shape.
But only the bottom is collapsing inward.

The hot glass sank under its own weight,
It looks like it was left stopped just like that.
A thick, swirling mass has accumulated at the bottom.

The series is called "Collapse."

Looking down from above,
The undulations at the bottom reflect the light like the surface of water.

These were made as beer glasses.
When you hold it, you'll notice that the center of gravity is low.

Because it is being blown by hand,
The two cups collapsed in different ways.
No two are exactly alike.

Most of the items in our shop have been used in ordinary households. We believe that small scratches, slight crazing in the glaze, and individual differences in color are not defects, but rather traces of the time the item has spent.
