Engineered for comfortable everyday handling and refined drink presentation, this barrel-shaped cup functions beautifully for serving fine teas, sake, or cold specialty beverages, catching the ambient dining room light to add a brilliant, artisanal accent to your luxury tableware collection.

The true value of this piece rests in its masterful execution of Burmese cultural arts.
