We have created a wooden lacquered cup with a popular spinning top design. It is quite large for a wooden cup, so you can enjoy a variety of drinks such as beer, tea, and shochu.
The spinning top pattern has long been used in lacquerware, but this cute design is created by layering multiple layers of colorful lacquer.
Spinning tops are originally believed to bring good luck, as they are said to bring good business and money, and this slightly flashy design has made it very popular with people of all ages, from young to old.
The exterior is finished with a "mehajiki" coating, while the inside is a simple wiped lacquer finish. Both coatings allow the wood grain to show through, so you can enjoy the beauty of the zelkova wood grain.
The tableware is made of wood, so you will be surprised at how light it is. It is also popular among people who find it difficult to hold heavy tableware.
The wood also has an uneven surface, which has the added benefit of making it less likely to slip between your fingers when you hold it.
Furthermore, because wood is a poor conductor of heat, even when you put hot tea in a teacup, it does not get too hot and is easy to hold; conversely, the tea inside does not cool down easily, making it extremely functional.
