Sake is one of the most iconic drinks in Japan and this stunning White Sake Serving Set allows you to serve the beverage in style. This sake set is all about juxtaposition which begins with the shape of the Japanese sake jug and stylish four sake cups. The jug is 6-5/8" deep and rectangular in shape, while the rest of the sake serving set is rounded with a straight edge. The combination of natural and unnatural shapes represents both the humanity of Japanese art and its natural inspiration. The contrast is also gorgeous when the set is displayed on a shelf or restaurant counter.
The Karakusa design is dual toned, with a lighter, brighter white being used for the Karakusa and a dull, very light gray glaze used for the backdrop. The Karakusa is a special design in Japan, where this Sake Serving Set is made. It symbolizes longevity and prosperity. Other ancient traditions called “Karakusa” arabesque because the pattern was first seen in Mesopotamia and Egypt.
Unlike many Japanese sake sets, this Lucky Karakusa White Sake Serving Set is practical. The pieces are made from substantial ceramic and are appropriate for warm or cold sake. The entire set is microwave and dishwasher safe. You can also find this fascinating
sake set in black.
