This set includes one sake cup made of 100% tin and one tin cup adorned with gold leaf.

Tin has been used since ancient times for sake and tea utensils, with beliefs such as "water in a tin vessel never spoils" and "it removes impurities from sake, making it taste better." The gold leaf used is from Kanazawa, which accounts for 99% of the national gold leaf market share. The set is wrapped in washi paper. Each piece is handcrafted by artisans. Presented in a paulownia wood box, it makes an excellent gift.

[Pre-wrapped in high-quality washi paper.] Ready to use as a gift for birthdays, weddings, 60th birthdays, anniversaries, etc.

This is a highly popular product meticulously crafted by artisans of Nousaku, a leading traditional Japanese craft brand.

After use, wash with a soft sponge and a neutral dish soap. If the shine dulls, use baking soda. Also, since 100% tin is soft, do not scrub with a hard brush, as this may scratch the surface. Due to its low melting point, do not place it near open flames. As it is metal, it cannot be used in a microwave oven. Do not use a dishwasher or dryer as it may become very hot.

Do not put it in the freezer, as low temperatures may cause the tin to deteriorate. Also, avoid prolonged storage in the refrigerator. Furthermore, do not leave highly acidic or darkly colored foods in it for extended periods, as this may cause discoloration.
