Handmade by Hiroyuki Tomita in Isehara, Japan
 
The tumbler features a slightly irregular, hand-sculpted form that highlights its artisanal nature. A deep chocolate-brown glaze serves as the base, while bold strokes of gold and silver are applied on top. Its size and shape make it comfortable to hold, while its elegant aesthetic enhances any drinking experience.

Hiroyuki Tomita creates a wide range of work, from everyday functional wares to large sculptural works. He also makes large-scale decorative tiles for walls of hotels and inns. Traditional ceramic art plays an important role in his making but he also values new perspectives and creativity a lot. This can be seen in his tablewares. They are bold in colour and made to not only serve the food but also decorate the dining tables.
