Description

This beer glass was made by Rokuro Nakamura, a master of sake ware.
I believe he made this beer glass when he was around 60 to 70 years old.
It is about 2 cm taller than his typical beer glass design.
There is ash residue inside from the firing process, so it has likely never been used.
The entire piece is the color of orange clay, which becomes even more beautiful when moistened.
The Nakamura family’s distinctive body design makes it very easy to hold.
