Description

This beer glass was made by Rokuro Nakamura, a master of sake ware.
I suspect he made this beer glass when he was around 70 to 80 years old.
It is about 1 cm taller than his typical beer glass design.
It is quite large, but very easy to grip, which is typical of Rokuro Nakamura, who loved to drink.
The gentle scarlet color of the Hidasuki and the rustic body may seem unbalanced, but I think they go very well together.
