A traditional Edo Kiriko glass-cutting technique meets a distinctly contemporary silhouette in the Atelier Kiriko Crumple Whisky Glass. The irregular faceted body carries a wrinkled, creased surface pattern that catches and refracts light through the crystal structure in a way that smooth and plain glassware does not produce. Each cut is precise and intentional, the result of a Japanese craft tradition that has valued the relationship between glass, light, and geometric form for centuries. At 260ml, the proportions suit a generous pour of whisky or spirits without overwhelming the hand that holds it.

The crumple body pattern gives the glass a sculptural quality that makes it as interesting to look at on a shelf or a table as it is to drink from. The irregular facets shift in character depending on the angle of light and the angle of view, giving the glass a quiet visual depth that mass-produced tumblers do not approach. Presented in a wooden box, the Kiriko Crumple arrives as a considered and complete object suited to personal use and gifting with equal elegance.
