Aurora Rocks glass (Handmade in Okinawa)

US$60.00-

Ryukyu glass is a traditional craft born in Okinawa, Japan.
The history of glasswork in Okinawa started about 100 years ago in the Meiji period, and it developed after World War II by recycling waste glass of coke and beer thrown away by US Military Bases there. Various colors of recycled glass and air bubbles that are easy to appear in recycling gave Ryukyu glass crafts their original and unique beauty.
Nowadays it is becoming hard to collect waste glass, and usually new glass is partially or entirely used, but the beauty of colorful glass and air bubbles which are great features of Ryukyu glass crafts remains unchanged and attracts us.

Ryukyu glass crafts are NOT HEAT-RESISTANTbecause of the air bubbles, which make glass breakable when hot liquids are poured. Please be careful NOT to pour a hot drink.
In this glass, a breathtaking scenery of beautiful aurora is made by a well-experienced manufacturer.
We hope you will have a wonderful moment with this fantastic Ryukyu rocks glass!
