[Product Number] TB90408Ms [Body Size] Φ65 x H145 (mm) [Capacity] Approx. 160 ml [Material] Soda Glass Contents: 1 wooden box, 2 Edo Kiriko glasses, 1 product description bookmark Care Instructions: Glass is sensitive to temperature changes, so please be careful of sudden cooling or heating. Do not use in microwaves, ovens, dishwashers, or dish dryers. When cleaning, use dish detergent and gently scrub with a soft sponge or cloth. Rubbing too hard with a metal scrubber or similar may cause scratches and damage. This piece is carved by combining two of Edo Kiriko's signature patterns, the "Yarai" and "Nanako" patterns. "Yarai" is the name given to the shape of bamboo or logs braided in an alternating pattern. Yarai fences are used in the very first stages of castle construction and stage set design, so they have the meaning of "building the foundations of something" and "solidifying the base." "Nanako" refers to fish scales, which have the connotation of "large numbers," and by extension, represent "fertility" and "abundance." Both are traditional auspicious patterns that have been loved since ancient times. Edo Kiriko began in the Edo period and has been designated a traditional Japanese craft as a precious art that conveys the life of Edo to the present day. All pieces are handmade one by one by skilled craftsmen.

This sculpture combines the representative patterns "Yarai" and "Nanako" (fish roe) together. "Yarai" is the name of the shape made by interlacing bamboo or logs. Yarai fences are used in the very first stages of castle construction and stage set making, so they have the meaning of "building the foundations of things" and "solidifying the base". "Nanako" refers to fish scales and has the connotation of "large numbers", which in turn represents "fertility" and "abundance". Both are very auspicious traditional patterns that have been loved since ancient times.
