Tohka Sake Set

A remarkable gift for the sake connoisseur comes from Gato Mikio’s Tohka collection, in natural and iron black lacquer finishes, and includes a stunning sake pitcher and pair of matching sake cups. Each object is turned by the hands of the Yamanaka region’s master wood turners, the latest generation of artisans who have practiced this craft for over 400 years. In Japanese Water Betula Grossa wood, cross-cut blocks are turned with incredible precision, producing beautiful details including slim, elegant stems and glass-thin lips. Each is then finished with a hand-wiped lacquer finish that reveals the natural grain and character of the wood with unprecedented clarity.
