【The Charm of the Work】
As the name "Arancio," meaning "orange" in Italian, suggests, this sake cup exudes overwhelming energy, with a vivid orange glaze reminiscent of magma taking center stage.

The dark, heavy texture is adorned with a fiery orange and eerily shimmering gold accents that seem to drip down.

It boasts an extremely high level of perfection, not only as a top-quality practical sake cup, but also as a "contemporary art object" that dominates any space. The golden landscape spreading inside is also a must-see.

Even the intricately shaped tips are free of chips, and the gold trim is in excellent condition.
