<Haisen (Cup Washer)>
This is a cup washer named “Haisen”, which was used in the late Edo to Meiji period in Japan.
At that time, people shared a single cup to drink sake during the drinking party to deepen their friendship. Therefore, people used water in Haisen to wash the cup during the drinking party.
The flower and butterfly are beautifully depicted on it. The butterfly has meanings of “wishes to live long life”, “rebirth”, and “immortality”. We believe that it is very important to convey Japanese traditional culture to the world.
Please take a look to the interiors when you arrive at the store.
